Default Help: What colour is this?

First time poster, long time lurker..

This year's Detroit Autoshow saw the debut of the 2017 allroad. The vehicle rolled out was as pictured here. Stunning colour. What is is it? My Audi rep thinks it's Sepang Blue. I've heard maybe Scuba blue.

Please let me know. Sepang would only be available through Audi Exclusive and Scuba is a selectable colour according to the recently released order guide.

Thank you.

Definitely not scuba, scuba is darker. It looks like the same non existent blue color they have been using on all the show cars lately. Audi Corporate was not able to identify the color for me when I asked a few months ago. I think it is somewhere between Sepang and Ara Blue

I think there's a slim possibility it could be Scuba Blue. There was a Scuba Blue B9 sedan at the Toronto auto show, and it looked fairly bright under the show lighting and with whatever waxing/polishing/etc they did...

I think it's too dark to be sepang blue... and it's also different from that not-available-in-North-America blue that was used for press cars at the B9 launch.

I think definitely not scuba. It's most likely sepang blue. I google image searched and found a lot of sepang blue audis that were under show lights and it looks like they are identical to me.

Definitely looks like Ara Blue based on the above video.
