With the “Auto Union Audi” vehicle, Auto Union GmbH revived the tradition-steeped Audi brand name in 1965. The new name was meant to show that this car represented a fresh start for Auto Union in terms of technology. The Audi was the first car from the brand with four rings to feature a four-cylinder four-stroke engine, and it marked the beginning of a new era in Ingolstadt. Twenty years later, on January 1, 1985, Audi NSU Auto Union AG was renamed AUDI AG, and since that time, the company and its products have shared the same short, memorable name. Ninety years ago, in February 1935, a spectacular attempt to break speed records took place in Italy. After test drives in October 1934 with the Grand Prix racing car on the AVUS in Berlin, the Auto Union racing department started developing the vehicle that would later be known as the “Lucca” car. Just a few weeks later, in December 1934, it was presented during initial test drives on the AVUS. The record attempts were planned in Hungary but were moved to Italy at the last minute due to bad weather. The one-kilometer and one-mile records were targeted to be broken with a flying start on a five-kilometer stretch between Pescia and Altopascio. Test drives took place on February 14, 1935, and the next day, on February 15, the car piloted by Hans Stuck performed as planned and was heralded the “world’s fastest road-going car.” With a speed of 326.975 km/h reached near Lucca, the vehicle broke 26 world records and 13 international class records.

With a total production run of 30,687 units, the Coupé remained a niche choice compared to the Audi 100 sedan, quickly earning a reputation as a car for individualists and achieving collector status early on. 55 years Audi Tradition 18 Anniversary Dates 2025 Reintroduction of the Audi Brand By the mid-1960s, Auto Union GmbH in Ingolstadt faced a crisis with its DKW two-stroke automobiles. Although the front-wheel-drive DKW models received consistent praise for their handling in the automotive press, the three-cylinder two-stroke engine increasingly became a liability. To address this, Daimler-Benz developed a four-cylinder four-stroke engine for its struggling subsidiary, derived from a discontinued military vehicle project. Before the development was completed, Daimler-Benz sold Auto Union GmbH to Volkswagenwerk AG. Under VW management, the project continued. Chief engineer Dr. Ludwig Kraus fitted the newly developed, unusually 60 years Audi Tradition 19 Anniversary Dates 2025 high-compression (11.2:1) four-stroke engine, known as the “medium-pressure engine,” producing 72 hp, into the modified body of the final DKW model, the F 102. The new model, a mix of the DKW F 102 and the fourstroke engine, was named “Audi.” The Auto Union Audi was introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA) in September 1965, with production having already begun on August 13, 1965. The Audi name had previously been used 55 years earlier, in May 1910, when the first Audi automobile, the Type A 10/22 PS, designed by Hermann Lange and August Horch, was delivered. Audi production ceased during World War II, with the final Audi 920 rolling off the assembly line at the Horch plant in Zwickau in April 1940. It would take a quarter of a century before the Audi brand made its return.

The merger of NSU and Auto Union to create Audi NSU Auto Union AG sparked rumours that the K 70 would not be built as a product to rival the Audi 100 and VW 411/412. But this did not happen and VW adopted the last new car to be developed in Neckarsulm, getting it ready for production with help from former NSU engineers at the newly constructed plant in Salzgitter within a year. From August 1970 to May 1975, 211,127 VW K 70 rolled off the production line in Lower Saxony. Audi Tradition 18 Anniversary Dates 2024 Takeover of Auto Union GmbH by Volkswagenwerk AG Years 60 1964 was a key turning point for Auto Union in Ingolstadt. In an extraordinary meeting of the shareholders on 16 December 1964, those present decided to increase the share capital from 80 to 160 million DM. At the same time, the acquisition of 51% of the capital by Volkswagenwerk AG, which had been prepared back in October of the same year, received the required approval. The officials thus initiated the gradual takeover of Auto Union GmbH from Daimler-Benz AG (previously the sole shareholder) by Volkswagenwerk AG. The takeover became legally effective on 1 January 1965. The rest of the shares were acquired from Daimler-Benz in further stages. From 1 November 1966, Auto Union GmbH was a fully owned subsidiary of VW. Audi Tradition 19 Anniversary Dates 2024 DKW F 102 The long-awaited successor to the outdated Auto Union 1000 made its debut at the International Motor Show in Frankfurt in September 1963, but only hit the market in March 1964. Hailed as the “Formula of Progress”, the DKW F 102 was a car with a modern design that was noted for its self-supporting body which was a departure from the separate design of chassis and body that had previously been customary at the company. But the grand DKW was still fitted with a three-cylinder, two-stroke engine. It was set to be the final two-stroke passenger car in the company’s history; the last DKW F 102 rolled off the production line in March 1966.
