Audi A9 - Changing color roof and windshield?

Audi released some information today regarding their newest addition to the A-series, the 2018 Audi A9. Now this car is still in the conceptual stage, but the design has been fully rendered and is ready for us to droll at it.

Audi's plan with the incredibly sporty and futuristic sedan is to be competitive when the Porsche Panamera or the Lamborghini Estoque. From what I've heard, this bad boy has a windshield/roof that can changes colors and opacity.. as well as REPAIR ITSELF?! Apparently this is through some nanotechnology that is still deep underwraps and still in development.

However, this makes me really excited about the cars that we'll be seeing out of Audi and their competitors in the next 5 to 10 years.

Here's some more pics of the rendering:

Yes, the future is finally here. No more wires in your Toyota. Oh, wait, I don't own a Toyota, but hey, this technology is pretty cool. Audi better catch on before I drop my R8 for a Corolla. .. Just kidding.



Also, finals start this week, so I may not be posting for a while. But that's okay, chemistry is going to get smacked next week.
