German automobile manufacturer of luxury vehicles, Audi has entered into a unique partnership with the Museum of the Future, the first-of-its-kind, state-of-the-art museum in Dubai, to be its official automotive partner.
Under the partnership, the German brand will showcase its electrification and sustainability plans, reflecting the UAE’s forward-looking mission. The purpose of the museum is to inform the government’s future initiatives around sustainability, leadership, space exploration, and progress in this architectural masterpiece where “history is made, rather than displayed.”
Visitors to the museum will have the opportunity to explore Audi’s two famous concept cars for the first time in the Middle East while experiencing a constant stream of other Audi innovations as they launch.

One of the two concept cars on display at the museum is the Audi AI: ME, the first car with the look of an automated driving compact car. The two letters in the name of the small but spacious car represent the entire cluster of advanced mobility technologies that Audi adds.

The Museum of the Future will also display the Audi Skysphere, also known as the spectacular roadster. The Skysphere is a sedan that combines two different driving experiences, a magnificent touring experience and a sporting experience. The brand portrays its vision for the future progressive luxury segment, in which the interior becomes an interactive space and the vehicle a platform for attractive experiences.
Both models align with the brand’s future-forward theme, placing Audi as a leader in future mobility, and the partnership with the Museum of the Future makes a great pairing.

Audi AI is a cipher of a variety of electronic systems that eliminate the hassle of drivers, at the same time give new possibilities for using the time spent in the car. To this end, Audi AI uses strategies and technologies from the fields of artificial intelligence and machine learning. This will make future models with four rings more intelligent and empathetic. They can constantly interact with their surroundings and passengers and thus adapt themselves better to the needs of those in the car.
