Audi Lunar quattro Investigates Alien Danger on Colony Ship

Director Ridley Scott has integrated the Audi lunar quattro into “Alien: Covenant,” a new chapter in his groundbreaking “Alien” franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imaginations, they must attempt a harrowing escape. In its film debut, the Audi lunar quattro is an integral part of the Covenant mission and is deployed to help Faris (Amy Seimetz) navigate and assess the challenging, unknown terrain of a new planet.

20th Century Fox and Audi brings you a marketing video that showcases the carmaker’s lunar quattro – an AI-driven piece of hardware that has a bigger role as part of the Alien: Covenant colonization mission than you realize. Besides providing exploration and research support, it also patrols the ship for unseen dangers. One night, an unidentified presence in the ship’s Terraforming Bay prompts it to investigate what might be lurking in the dark.

The follow-up to “Prometheus” and prequel to “Alien” arrives in cinemas on May 19th.
