Audi's innovative MMI, which links information and communications systems from audio to the Internet, is similar in concept to BMW iDrive. Avantissimo includes TV screens and a DVD player for rear passengers, while a fingerprint scanner identifies the driver and adjusts the seats, stereo, mirrors and other features to that driver's preferences.
