Generations and features
Audi labeled three devices (of which the first two look identical) as Navigation Plus.[1] Those units are technically known as RNS-C/RNS-D and RNS-E, where RNS stands for "Radio Navigation System".

RNS-C & RNS-D

Audi Navigation Plus (RNS-D) installed in Audi S6
The RNS-C and RNS-D devices look identical and are very similar to Volkswagen MFD[2] installed in some Volkswagen, Skoda, SEAT and Ford Galaxy cars. Across brands, the devices share the same general features, internal electronics, tiltable LCD screen and some elements of user interface. However, there often are differences between individual hardware variants.

The RNS-C models (recognizable by a part number ending with 192A to 192E) use the 'non-DX' map system where map data is uncompressed and thus requires multiple CDs per country (i.e. for Germany, there's one for Germany North, one for Germany South, and one CD containing only major roads). The RNS-C doesn't use antenna diversity and the radio tuner only supports AM and FM.

RNS-D models which have a part number ending with 192F or later use the 'DX' map system which uses compressed data and thus requires less media changes. In addition, the hardware has been improved with a faster processor and more memory, and additional features (like a compass display) and options (like Bluetooth handsfree or voice control) were made available. The radio tuner also supports LW and uses antenna diversity with two antenna inputs.

Features include:

5-inch 4:3 ratio LCD screen, 2-axis tiltable
FM/AM radio (FM/AM/LW on RNS-D)
CD-based GPS navigation[3] with compass
Compass (RNS-D only)
Analog TV Tuner (option)
Audio and video aux-in (option)
CD changer (option) - later variants also supported MP3 CD playback
Voice control (only on later revisions of RNS-D)
Firmware updates available through update CD
Neither RNS-C nor RNS-D are still supported with map updates. Non-DX maps stopped after 2007, DX maps stopped after 2014.

RNS-D models are often called 'RNS-DX' with what appears to be a reference to the DX map format these units use (and to distinguish from the RNS-C which often is erroneously called 'RNS-D'), however this isn't an official designation.

RNS-E & RNS-E 2010

Audi Navigation Plus (RNS-E)

RNS-E system installed in Audi A6 C5
In 2004, RNS-D was replaced with the RNS-E unit, and later upgraded to RNS-E 2010.

MEDIA button instead of CD/TV or CD/SD
Engineering mode functions
Audi RNS-E hidden menu gives access to few additional features and options.[12] This menu was most likely used when navigation system software and hardware was developed by Audi engineers.
