ALIEN COVENANT TRAILER

The Moonrover Audi Lunar Quattro celebrates its film debut in Ridley Scott’s sci-fi movie Alien Covenant this week, ahead of its impending mission to the Moon next year.
The Audi lunar Quattro has been developed in cooperation with Berlin-based start-up Part-Time Scientists.

Over the past two years, the automobile manufacturer has worked with a team led by Robert Böhme – founder and CEO of Part-Time Scientists – in developing the rover, by supplying all-wheel drive technology, expertise in lightweight construction, experience in developing vehicles with electric and plug-in hybrid motors (e-tron), and with design optimization.
Director Ridley Scott has integrated the Audi lunar quattro into Alien: Covenant, the latest instalment of his Alien franchise. In its film debut, the rover is a part of the Covenant mission; deployed to help navigate and assess the challenging, unknown terrain of a new planet.
Incorporating the Audi lunar quattro into the film is part of a collaboration between Twentieth Century Fox and Audi – allowing filmmakers to incorporate authentic technology into their futuristic worlds.
As part of the collaboration, a short film was also created by Twentieth Century Fox, 3AM and Audi. It depicts the rover patrolling the Terraforming Bay when it detects an unidentified lifeform and goes to investigate what lurks in the dark.
