Audi RSQ

The Audi RSQ is a mid engined concept car that Audi AG developed as a product placement for the 2004 science fiction film I, Robot, where it was meant to show an advanced automobile in the Chicago cityscape of the year 2035. The sports coupe was a visionary reading of Audi design that still had to be recognised by viewers as an Audi, so it carried the single frame grille, the four overlapping rings and the Multi Media Interface control system. It also had features suggested by the film director Alex Proyas, among them spheres in place of conventional wheels and two reverse butterfly doors hinged to the C pillars. It was the first collaboration of this kind for Audi. A later concept in the same series, the Audi RSQ e-tron of 2019, was designed with Blue Sky Studios for the animated film Spies in Disguise and features a hologram speedometer.
