In 1932, four companies were merged to form Auto Union. The four were Horsch, Audi, Wanderer and DKW, and these brand names were still used. After the war, Auto Union was re-established and resumed production of DKW. Volkswagen bought into the company - and eventually took over NSU as well. Audi NSU became a brand under Volkswagen and from 1985 changed to Audi AG.

Audi A3 30 TDI (8Y)
When you rent a car, it happens that you get to meet a model that surprises you positively. The new Audi A3 8Y is such a car.
Audi Q2 TFSI
It looks fantastic! But already in the basic version it is expensive - and with Quattro and S Tronic it becomes extremely expensive.
Audi TFSI A3 30
After being in production for over 7 years, it is offered with the group's new 1-litre engine. Does the A3 still hang in the corners?
Audi e-tron 55
Quattro, air suspension, two electric motors – 408 horses, two and a half ton full-size SUV. As a family car, the e-tron does not suffer from being equipped with batteries and electric operation.
Audi A3 Sport e-tron
Practical range for pure electric operation is just over three miles, often less before the petrol engine kicks in. With both electricity and petrol, 204 horses are available.
Audi A1 Sportsback 1.0 TFSI 95HK
What the Audi A1 scores on is that it is fun to drive. The outgoing A1 is still a youthful car - with a slight hint of femininity.
Audi A3 1.6 TDI 110HK S tronic
The TDI engine is audible all the time, but is not bothersome. The S tronic seemed to be set up in constant eco mode.
Audi Q3 2,0 TDI 177HP Quattro
A very good drive. With Quattro and high ground clearance, this small SUV is also absolutely superb in winter.
Audi A4 2,0 TDI 120 HP
Safe driving characteristics, but you could get more out of the engine if the manual 6-speed gearbox was better adapted to the TDI engine's rev intervals.
An original Audi from the USA
A completely original low-miler from the east coast of the USA from the time before Audi became a recognized luxury brand.
Audi 80B1
The B1 was the car that gave Audi its own identity. You could test drive the car at your local Audi NSU dealer.
Spring days in a light blue Audi?
In 1977, this Audi 80 GLS 1,6 85HK was a great family car. Today a veteran of nostalgic trips.
How much petrol does a rechargeable…
Stated EU consumption on hybrid cars is almost nothing. Real consumption is higher, especially when the batteries are almost empty and winter is here.

Audi TT 8J
The Audi TT mk2 looks good, but is not a pure sports car – more of a Golf coupé, many would say.
Audi 100 C3
In the US, the Audi C3 will forever be remembered as the Audi that accelerated by itself - that took off at full throttle with terrified people on board.
Audi 100 C1
The first Audi to receive a new type designation. Early Audi 60/80/90 inherited the type designation from DKW.
