After announced in the , the next obvious question we had was when Google Street View was coming. The only response we got: “Just wait.”
Well, the waiting is over. Audi announced today that Street View – Google’s relentless outdoor photographing service – will join the high-resolution aerial and satellite images embedded in Audi’s Connect infotainment system.
According to Audi, the system pre-loads data for your selected route and then integrates with your smartphone’s UTMS module to provide a 360-degree view for the driver – most helpful when looking for a specific business or residence in a congested urban area.
Audi also announced its “music stream” service, which, like BMW’s Internet Radio functionality, allows drivers to select from over 4,000 internet radio stations from around the world and stream them through the stereo. Details on both systems can be found in the press blast .
