    • Street date:

  • In 1899, August Horch established his first automobile company, A. Horch & Cie. Following disputes with the board of directors, Horch departed the company to create a second automotive enterprise. When Horch & Cie filed a lawsuit over the trademarked "Horch" name, he rebranded his new company as Audi. In German, "Horch" translates to "listen!" or "hearken!" and Audi is the Latin equivalent of Horch.

  • In 1932, Audi merged with DKW, Wanderer, and the original Horch company, forming Auto Union. The renowned four overlapping rings symbolize these four founding brands.

    • Quattro: Quattro refers to the vehicle's groundbreaking permanent all-wheel-drive system, which delivers engine power to all four wheels, enhancing grip and handling. The term Quattro is derived from the Latin word "quattuor," meaning four.

quattro – the birth of a legend


The Audi quattro, unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1980, was a crucial step in the Audi brand’s repositioning and embodied the motto “Vorsprung durch Technik”. Its outstanding traction, thanks to permanent all-wheel drive and two manually lockable differentials, made the Audi quattro the ideal choice for use on difficult terrain. The advantages of the concept were demonstrated by its triumphant success in the World Rally Championship.

Rally and circuit racing – a golden age in motorsport


The introduction of the quattro drive system in 1981 ushered in a new era in the World Rally Championship. But the revolutionary drive concept also notched up a string of successes on the circuit racing scene, in a wide range of racing series including the German Touring Car Championship and the Super Touring Car Cup. Audi’s motorsport involvement continued through to the legendary Le Mans endurance race, where an unprecedented series of successes began in 1999.
