And a second secret compartment of sorts...the inside emergency release handle for the liftgate, requiring you to pry off a cover that is next to the load floor, so you'll never see it or access it if the rear compartment is full. Hmmm...

There's also supposed to be an "electronics bay" under the passenger side seat, under the carpet, empty if you don't have some of the electronics options.

fwiw.
It's no doubt more cost effective (aka cheaper) to put the compartment in all cars during production and then just leave out the triangle for select markets. I can only imagine how limited the usage of the triangle would be in the U.S. market. Controlling costs is one thing all of the auto makers (not just Audi) do well these days.
