A Mercedes pioneered advent that now Audi and Volkswagen has signed on for support as well that's part of the big news here at the LA auto show. The Tiguan also has some unusual features like these color keyed tires. The insets that are on the tread match body color. I don't know that we'll see that make it to production. Inside though, we also see some colored keying some interesting patterns that also pick up body color. That could make it to production without too many assembly line headaches, not a whole lot of other details in this vehicle just yet. The promised a lot of specifics around Q107. That probably means Detroit Auto Show. But they also say that availability in showrooms will happen within 12 months. That would be the tail end of 2007. That's interesting.
