In 1980, during the Geneva Motor Show, the German car manufacturer from Ingolstadt presented its new two-door coupé, the Audi Quattro. Produced throughout the 1980s, its Italian name highlights its main feature: four-wheel drive. At the time, four-wheel drive on a vehicle aimed at generating high sales figures was indeed an important innovation. The “Quattro” guaranteed good performance combined with excellent road holding on any type of surface. The longitudinal front engine was capable of delivering appreciable performance. A competition version was also created, which debuted in the World Rally Championship in 1981, achieving good results. The success of the “Quattro” continues to this day, so much so that the Italian name has become a true “brand” that identifies the entire latest range of Audi’s four-wheel-drive cars.
