Audi announced that it will bring the fast LTE (Long Term Evolution) data transfer standard to the car with full integration.
Audi is the first automaker to offer LTE standard. From July, customers can order LTE standard as an option in the Audi S3 Sportback.
LTE technology is very important for Audi connect, the networking of the car with the driver, the Internet and the environment. The new LTE standard takes mobile Internet to a new dimension.
LTE enables the exchange of large amounts of data via the Internet, such as music and films in HD quality. Commercial LTE networks already exist in many European countries and in the USA. In Germany, LTE is available in a few large cities, but is primarily active in many rural areas.
The standard is expected to be available everywhere by the end of 2014.
