Audi is a renowned German luxury automotive brand with roots dating back to the early 20th century. The company’s name is based on the Latin translation of the surname of its founder, August Horch, which means 'listen.' The iconic four-ring logo represents the 1932 merger of four independent motor-vehicle manufacturers: Audi, DKW, Horch, and Wanderer, which formed Auto Union AG.
Today, Audi's manufacturing network is global, ensuring high standards of technical precision. While its primary manufacturing and engineering hubs remain in Ingolstadt and Neckarsulm, Germany, the brand also operates major production facilities in Hungary, Belgium, Mexico, China, and Brazil. This distributed manufacturing strategy allows Audi to serve international markets efficiently while maintaining its reputation for 'Vorsprung durch Technik' (Progress through Technology).
Since the 1960s, Audi has been a core brand within the Volkswagen Group. It operates as a premium subsidiary, often managing other high-end makes like Lamborghini and Bentley under its corporate umbrella. The brand remains one of the world's leading premium car manufacturers, focusing heavily on the transition to electric mobility with its e-tron series.
