That's quite a commendable achievement, even if is a bit futile!
Could be worse. He could've put an Audi V8 into a Tesla!

I would rather drive an electric Audi than a Tesla. Now if only I could do this to a D2 or a D3 |

Asuming it is real, that must've been an even more difficult conversion than the Tesla-powered Audi. I mean, the Tesla has no engine bay or drivetrain for a start.

Sadly I suspect some trickery at play

Audi E-Tron, now that's a good looking interior screen set up.
Unlike Tesla's big slab However I would still prefer buttons for some things, why do you need a touchscreen for climate control? A bit of a gimmick. |

I have to say, I thought the same until I drove the D5 for a few days to the Annual Meet weekend, but you quickly get used to it and also get a "click" aptic feedback to your fingers when you press any "button" on the screen. The climate control was the same and even the sliders for temperature or fan speed felt much more intuitive than I thought they were going to be

It looks to me like it has no side mirror, Goran.
Is the view displayed on a screen then, or how does it work?
