The compact car features a surprisingly long wheelbase and a tall greenhouse, affording it plenty of cabin space in its subcompact footprint.

Audi has placed an emphasis on low-speed mobility with the AI:Me, which will spend most of its time at city speed.

A 168-horsepower electric motor motivates the rear wheels.

A 65-kilowatt hour battery pack should, according to Audi, be good enough for most around town trips.

The AI:Me is capable of Level 4 autonomous driving, meaning that it can drive itself without any aid from a human under certain conditions.
