History:
Debuting at the 1980 Geneva Motor Show, the Audi quattro was a groundbreaking high-performance coupé that changed the face of rallying and sports cars forever. Its name — Italian for “four” — referenced the advanced all-wheel-drive system that gave it unmatched grip and handling in all conditions. Powered by a turbocharged inline-five producing around 200 horsepower, the quattro became a dominant force in the World Rally Championship from 1981, securing multiple victories and championships. Beyond motorsport, its technology influenced generations of performance cars, and the quattro name remains synonymous with Audi’s engineering excellence.
