Audi Canada Reinvents The Test-Drive With World’s First iPad Controlled Slot Car Race
TORONTO, January 16 – With the release of a documentary short film today, Zulu Alpha Kilo and Audi Canada have put the final touches on the Audi quattro® Experience. This one-of-a-kind interactive installation put participants in the driver’s seat of a custom-made 1:32 scale Audi A4 quattro® slot car for the chance to test their on-track skills.
Using the world’s first iPad enabled slot car controller, visitors to the installation were able to take their A4 for a wild test-drive around hairpin turns, down long highway straightaways and through icy mountain passes – terrain that would get the better of lesser vehicles.
Here’s a video outlining the project.
The project involved a number of innovations to marry the worlds of slot car racing and technology with the Audi brand:
• A handcrafted 140 sq. ft. (20’ by 7’) custom slot car track
• 3D printed 2013 Audi A4 vehicle shells fit with Audi quattro® all wheel drive slot car chassis and custom in-car cameras
• Custom iPad app integrating live in-car camera feed and digital voltage modulator to control vehicle acceleration
• High definition bird’s eye view race cam with integrated Facebook, Twitter and YouTube share function
The film, entitled “Painting Coconuts”, captures the entire build through the eyes of track maker David Beattie of Slot Mods USA. Set behind the scenes leading up to launch of the Audi quattro Experience, the film offers a unique look into Beattie’s personal story, his passion for the art of custom track design and the sport of slot car racing. It also delves into his process and the challenges his team faced to execute a project with so many innovative features. The film was directed by Tamir Moscovici (Urban Outlaw) of Industry Films.
Zak Mroueh, President and Executive Creative Director of Zulu Alpha Kilo, said, “This was the perfect opportunity for us to reimagine what a test drive could be, and bring a truly unique and memorable experience to Audi fans.”
Jennifer Dobbs, Audi Brand Marketing Manager, said, “In every way, this innovative experience brings to life our passion for design, craftsmanship and sportiness. It’s also a perfect embodiment of the progressive ideals of the Audi brand and our desire to delight our customers in Canada.”
This is the documentary, “Painting Coconuts”.

According to a report coming from UK, Audi has plans to introduce a new city car in 2019 that will mostly target the young crowd.
The model is apparently being envisioned as a spiritual successor of the A2 and is expected to be less than 157.4 inches (four meters) long. It doesn’t have a name yet, but Audi will slot this underneath the A1 and will sell it in both three- and five-door guises. The model is being developed at home in Ingolstadt, Germany and will use a modified version of the New Small Family platform that has underpinned the up!, Mii and Citigo trio.
Audi will likely introduce an electric version in the same vein as the VW e-up!, but that might come later during the model’s life cycle. Interestingly, Audi is also thinking about a rugged derivative with a jacked up suspension and more plastic body cladding for a potential allroad model, but honestly that seems unlikely at this point.

In terms of power, the smallest Audi is rumored to receive a newly developed turbocharged three-cylinder, 1.0-liter engine of undisclosed output. Diesel and hybrid versions have been ruled out and there likely won’t be a quattro all-wheel drive setup available, hence our reluctance towards the allroad version.
The conventionally-powered Audi city car is expected to cost around $22,600 (£15,500) whereas the electrified version will rise to $36,500 (£25,000) before incentives.
