More convenient, faster, contactless: Audi integrates new apps for parking, charging, and fueling

Intelligent networking makes driving more comfortable, efficient and safer. That is Audi's goal in the digitalization of the vehicle. With immediate effect, the brand is adding two services to its app portfolio – already featuring offerings from partners across entertainment, gaming, and music – with two services that contribute to this orientation. “EasyPark” makes paying for parking effortless, while “ryd” handles fueling, charging and even car washes – all from the comfort of the car. The benefits: less stress when looking for a parking space and fuel stations, shorter waiting times, and always having the right payment option at hand.

Edge Cloud 4 Production: IT-based factory automation enters series production

Audi has been testing the local server solution Edge Cloud 4 Production (EC4P), a new method of IT-based factory automation, at Böllinger Höfe since July 2022. Starting in July 2023, this paradigm shift in Audi’s shop floor IT will be used for the first time in series production. At Böllinger Höfe, a local server cluster will control the worker support systems for two production cycles of the Audi e-tron GT quattro, RS e-tron GT, and Audi R8 models. In the future, the software-controlled, flexible, and scalable server solution will replace the decentralized control system that relies on high-maintenance industrial PCs. EC4P allows Audi to redeploy the computing power the production line requires to local data processing centers. In addition to this first application in series production, Audi is simultaneously adapting EC4P for other use cases in the Audi Production Lab (P-Lab).
