In addition, there is a complete driver assist systems package – the assist package plus – which includes all three of the assist pack-
ages described above at a reduced price.

Note
The third generation park assist is not offered for the Audi e-tron GT. This was first available in the Audi Q7 (type 4M)
in 2015 and then also in second generation MLBevo vehicles. It has been replaced by the park assist plus, which con-
trols the vehicle’s longitudinal movement in addition to its lateral movement. This new system is described later in this
self-study programme.
Special characteristics of the driver assist systems on the Audi e-tron GT
The following section describes the special characteristics of certain driver assist systems on the Audi e-tron GT where they differ
from the implementation on other models based on the second generation of the MLBevo platform.
Lane departure warning
The lane departure warning does not issue a warning via a steering wheel vibration when the vehicle crosses a lane marking. This is
due to Audi and Porsche using different steering systems. The steering systems developed by Audi produce the steering wheel vi-
bration via the electric motor in power steering control unit J500.
As a result, the vehicle does not have the corresponding settings under “Lane departure warning” in the profile master for driver
assist systems that are used to switch the vibration on and off on other Audi models.
However, steering torque is applied when the vehicle approaches a lane marking in the same way as on other models. The display in
the instrument cluster showing the lane markings is also the same. The markings are shown in different colours depending on the
system status.
Exit warning system
The exit warning system is implemented in a slightly different way compared to other vehicles based on the second generation of
the MLBevo platform. The Audi e-tron GT does not have light strips in the doors that light up in critical situations. All of the other
warning mechanisms (such as the lane change warning lamps in the exterior mirrors lighting up or flashing brightly and the delay
in opening the doors) are implemented in the familiar way on the Audi e-tron GT.
Adaptive cruise assist
On some models based on the second generation of the MLBevo platform, if a vehicle is ordered with the adaptive cruise assist, a
laser scanner is fitted in addition to the long range radar sensor. On the Audi e-tron GT, however, no laser scanner is fitted as the
long range radar sensor is sufficient for the adaptive cruise assist. As a result, the narrowed road assist cannot be offered on the
Audi e-tron GT.
Since the Audi e-tron GT has a Porsche steering system without a capacitive steering wheel, the hands-off detection uses the data
from the steering torque sensors.
Versions of driver assist systems control unit J1121
When the first model based on the second generation of the MLBevo platform – the Audi A8 (type 4N) – was launched in 2017,
there were four versions of driver assist systems control unit J1121: versions A0, A, B and C.
The difference between versions A0 and A was that version A also provided the vehicle with camera-based traffic sign recognition.
The way in which the installation of camera-based traffic sign recognition is managed has since been changed, meaning that there
are now only three different versions: versions A, B and C. The “new” version A is therefore available both with and without camera-
based traffic sign recognition.
The control buttons that are familiar from other models based on the second generation of the MLBevo platform are positioned as
follows on the Audi e-tron GT.
[9] Depending on the headlight version ordered, the tour assist package will either contain the “digital” main beam assist or the further development
of the matrix beam main beam assist.
