Audi unveiled the Sportback concept car at the 2009 North American International Automobile Show. With systematic refinements to the brand’s characteristic design elements, the five-door model offers a glimpse at the Audi's future design vocabulary. With its pronounced coupé-like silhouette and large rear hatch the Audi Sportback concept is boldly progressive for the luxury class.
As its name suggests, the Audi Sportback concept is a variation on the theme first defined in the Audi range by the A3 Sportback with its combination of sleek sports hatch styling and five-door versatility, and signals the brand's intention - as previously demonstrated by the A1 Sportback concept – to dramatically expand its line-up of Sportback models.
