The latest software as of a few months go was 0715-2. I was updated to that version and I don't see a couple of new features as shown in the video including alternate route colors/numbers, the Avoid Traffic option when traffic appears and the visual interstate multiple lane guidance on the DIS. I suspect that the owners of recent 2014 3G MMI Nav plus models who are starting to report having version 0726 may have these improvements. Can anyone with a recently purchased MY2014 with MMI 0726 confirm these new items?

Looks like A3 only, since this model is getting the last iteration of Audi MMI.

Ahh, I see! Just guessing, the only way to update your maps or software is to visit the dealer, right? Is there a way to update or customize the software? That's probably another thread though..I wish there was a way to upgrade our Hardware to 4G LTE, the T-Mob at 3G speeds is painfully slow. On the bright side, not many cars have a SIM so count your blessings

Upgrading map is not the problem, the problem is to activate them.
There are some Russian hackers who have done something about it but a lot of people would destroy their own navigation with the same....repair is only possible in the Audi Ingolstadt approximately $ 1.500. Some have succeeded and some do not
Custom software for Audi does not currently exist
Upgrading to 4G ...... of course everything is possible only question is whether it is worth it (parts around $ 5,000)
