My dealer said no, but I don't imagine it comes up that frequently. Avantes are really not popular here in Texas. I would love to surprise my wife with it.

It would definitely be really expensive...
1. Need button in driver side door+ wiring to the back of the trunk.
2. Need motorized locking mechanism.
3. Need motors for the liftgate to go up and down.
4. Need to somehow connect system to radio frequency remote operation.
5. Installation.
1+2+3+4+5=EXPENSIVE :-]

Almost
I am not sure, but I believe all current Audis have some sort of power release and remote control. So I believe that 1+5 are already there. Nevertheless, 2+3+4 would be very prohibitive.
We got ours from the factory
