If you are driving an Audi A8 series, you will not go lost in town anymore. Today’s car has mostly featured by GPS system which can navigate you through the roads anywhere, but nit with Google Earth. Audi makes a breakthrough with build Audi A8 with Google Earth Satnav system and becomes the first car that adapts this Google technology.

Even though we failed to connect to the internet due to lack of signals, the HDD of the system will store maps and direction database and still can work properly.

Google Earth allows the Satnav to show buildings, landscapes, traffic in 3D system. The system is also linked to your desktop computer and has an ability search for an address on the computer and sends it to the car; when you start driving, the car will know where to go. Only Audi A8 series will feature this system and no detail yet about this technology in other lower specifications of Audi.
