Statistics
Audi connect plug and play helps you optimise your driving style. Personal driving data, such as acceleration, vehicle speed, engine speed and braking behaviour, is measured and displayed in a detailed statistical breakdown. This lets you learn from your own driving style and reach your destinations more efficiently.
Service appointments
With the Audi connect plug and play app, you can request an appointment at your Audi partner at any time. Including placing a direct call and with navigation assistance. If your vehicle needs an inspection or an oil service, you have the option of automatically requesting a service appointment at your preferred Audi partner. Your Audi partner will then contact you as soon as possible and you can opt to provide them with relevant vehicle information.
Breakdown and assistance
Fast assistance wherever you are should you have a breakdown or accident. Because the app’s “Breakdown and assistance” function connects you with national 24-hour roadside assistance or with the Audi service hotline*. You have the option of transmitting your location and vehicle information as well as calling up important tips for what to do in an emergency. In addition, the app displays a selection of your vehicle’s warning and control lights. Supplementary explanations help you identify these correctly and respond appropriately should a control light be activated. This is what safety feels like.
