Ngemuva kokuthi i-Audi yethule iProjekthi ye-Artemis ngoMeyi, ithuba lokuthi izohumusheka ekubeni isaluni kagesi esezingeni eliphezulu engeke ivele ngaphambi kokuthi u-2024 azuze lukhulu.
Ngokolwazi oluthuthukiswe ngabakwa-Autocar, ilungu elisha lomndeni wakwa-e-tron lingase liqanjwe kabusha ngokuthi i-e-tron i-A9, lizimise esigabeni esifanayo lapho kuhlala khona i-A8, kodwa lithatha indawo ye-saloon enezicabha ezinhlanu enephrofayili esheshayo. , emfanekisweni walokho esikubona ku-Audi A7 Sportback.

I-Audi Aicon, eyethulwe ngo-2017.
Ukuthuthukiswa kwekhodi yephrojekthi ebizwa ngokuthi i-E6 kusesesigabeni sayo sokuqala, kodwa kuhloswe ukuba kube inkampani ethwala izinga likagesi hhayi kuphela kwa-Audi kodwa futhi nakuyo yonke iVolkswagen Group.
Kuncane okwaziwayo mayelana nemodeli entsha, kodwa uma kubhekwa ukuma kwayo, kunethuba elinamandla lokuthi izosekelwe endaweni kagesi ye-PPE yesikhathi esizayo, ethuthukiswe phakathi ne-Porsche.

Iphrojekthi ka-Artemis, iyini?
I-Artemis Project, empeleni, iyiqembu elisebenzayo elihlose ukusheshisa ukuthuthukiswa kwamamodeli amasha anokuqukethwe okuphezulu kwezobuchwepheshe - uhlobo lomsebenzi we-skunk.
Leli qembu elisebenzayo manje alikwazi ukufinyelela kuphela ithimba lezokuthuthukiswa kwangaphakathi, kodwa futhi namalungu amaqembu entuthuko (onjiniyela kanye nochwepheshe bezinhlelo zesofthiwe) avela kulo lonke iqembu laseJalimane ukuze "kusheshiswe futhi kuncishiswe i-bureaucracy ekwakhiweni kobuchwepheshe bokusebenza kukagesi. futhi ukushayela ku-othomathikhi kakhulu”, njengoba kushiwo nguMarkus Duesmann, oyi-CEO yakwa-Audi.

Okunye okuphethe leli thimba “ukuthuthukiswa kwe-ecosystem ebanzi ezungeze imoto ngokwayo, okuholela kumodeli entsha yebhizinisi kuso sonke isigaba sokusetshenziswa kwemoto”.
