The enormity of the challenges facing the automotive industry in respect of CO2 emissions and the sustainable use of natural resources has been shown. At Audi, these requirements are met through the all-embracing approach of Audi balanced mobility. Fuel efficiency targets are currently being realised with the help of the Audi modular efficiency toolbox. One of its cornerstones is the electrification of vehicles. To complement the current hybridisation of a wide range of models, e-tron models are also being developed for production on a volume scale. Innovative vehicle energy management is needed in order to further optimise the energy losses in the vehicle. Examples of such systems presented here include the Audi on-board computer with efficiency program, the Audi efficiency mode and Audi energy assist. The degree of integration in the vehicle will continue to rise. In future, vehicles will communicate with each other (car2car) and with their environment (car2x). Steadying the flow of traffic can significantly reduce CO2 emissions by road traffic. It was established in the Audi project "Travolution" that CO2 emissions can be reduced by up to 35 % merely through communication between vehicles and traffic signals to take the prevailing traffic situation into account. The combination of integrated vehicle networks and driver assistance sensor technology will pave the way for the next developments in the direction of piloted parking and eventually piloted driving.
