INGOLSTADT: Audi is the first carmaker to integrate the DAZN sports streaming service into its vehicles.
This will allow sports fans to experience live sports, highlights, and documentaries from the driver’s seat on the 14.5-inch MMI touch display, for example during a charging break.
Passengers can follow all the content on the MMI passenger display even when the car is moving.
Using third-party apps, they can watch live sporting events, movies, or series and access games on the 10.9-inch passenger display without distracting the driver.
The DAZN app is now available in select vehicles via the Audi Application Store.
This currently includes the Audi A5, Q5, A6, A6 e-tron, and Q6 e-tron series, which all have an Android-based infotainment system as their onboard operating system.
The premium carmaker offers its customers a range of market-specific third-party apps in the store, including Amazon Music, Audible, booking.com, Spotify, Yelp, YouTube – and now DAZN.
The app portfolio is steadily growing to provide a wide selection of entertainment options, especially for short breaks.
In addition to the infotainment system, the “Audi Application Store and Smartphone Interface” is also required.
The Audi Application Store is integrated directly into the MMI and does not require a smartphone to use.
A myAudi account and an active data connection are necessary.
The integration of the DAZN app into the Audi digital ecosystem was achieved in collaboration with CARIAD, the Volkswagen Group’s software company.
The app has been specifically optimized for in-car use.
DAZN content will also be accessible in vehicles from other Volkswagen Group brands in the long term.
