History

Here you can find interesting information about the fascinating development of Audi, the most important milestones in its history, as well as its products and greatest successes.

Company history

Very few companies can look back on such a long, varied and eventful history. The companies from which today’s AUDI AG was formed – the oldest, NSU, was founded in 1873 – continue to characterise Audi and its corporate culture to this day. An innovative and pioneering spirit, as well as the courage to try out new things, have been part and parcel of Audi from day one. Even today, these qualities form the basis for the company’s aspiration to play a decisive role in shaping the present and the future of mobility.

Iconic models in the history of Audi

Audi Type C “Alpensieger”, Horch 853, Wanderer W 25 K, DKW Front, NSU Prinz and the iconic Audi Sport quattro – these are just some of the many and varied products that the company has developed over the years. Over the course of its history, Audi has explored almost all the different variants of the motorcar and has left its mark on each of them. And let’s not forget two-wheelers, which added further exciting chapters to the company’s history. You can find an overview here.

Racing history

Motorsport has always been an integral part of the Audi story: from reliability trials in the early days of the automobile, the era of the legendary Grand Prix racing cars, spectacular rally successes with the quattro in the 1980s to the wins in touring car, GT and endurance racing. All of these accomplishments have shaped Audi’s self-image right up to the present day.
