The Audi Ice Experience is set against the backdrop of the Austrian Alps. One must drive on pure ice, where grip levels are negligible.

Driving two kinds of cars, in sub-zero temperatures, over a frozen field in Austria, isn't foolhardy. It's one for the bucket list 

Sub-zero temperatures are not what us tropical folks are used to, but for what I was about to do in the Austrian Tyrol, it couldn't be any warmer. On a frozen field surrounded by rugged Alpine mountains, I was all set to drive a pair of Audis on ice. Hence, -7 degrees that day was just fine to keep the ice from melting.

The Audi Ice Experience is one for the bucket list. Audi, for whom selling cars is not enough, also provides unusual experiences. Their ice-driving programme is set in a winter wonderland near Seefeld in Austria.
