My guess it will be revealed in 2029 as a 2030 model.

That's longer than I thought! 12 year model run!

Just going back to the grandsphere, what a stunning concept that is. the LCI 7 was just released with a worse front end and the Ix3 dash.

Sad days for the luxury sedan segment.

I reread the article and I think the article isn't accurately capturing exactly what the Audi executive said.

He said that they intend to release a successor...

That's just corporate speak for we're going to wait and see if it makes sense to launch a new d6...

So we don't even actually know for sure if there is a successor...

You're missing the main point - D5 production is ending.
