"Vorsprung durch Technik"

People have been fascinated by automobiles ever since they were invented. In the course of the automobile’s history, Audi and the companies that preceded it introduced a great many new technical features and innovations that enhanced the development of the motor vehicle and gave it the unbelievably high standards of reliability and ease of operation we enjoy today – entirely in the spirit of Audi’s maxim ‘Vorsprung durch Technik’.
