When A. Horch in 1909 was withdrawn from the management of the plant that bore his name, he built a new auto enterprise in the same place, in the city of Zwickkau.

And since, according to the laws, he could not produce cars under the previous brand, he took it and simply translated his last name into Latin. "Audi" means "listen" in Latin, as does "Horch" in old German.

In 1932, Audi, Horch, DKW, Wanderen merged into the Auto Union concern.

It broke up in 1945, and its successor was the firm 'Audi', whose cars carry the former (since 1932) emblem - four woven rings of the former Auto Union.

In 1999, the volume of production of Audi models decreased compared to 1998 to 577. 2 thousand units.

This is mainly due to a decrease in demand for the most popular A4 and A6 models, which have been produced without significant changes for several years now.

However, the management is taking measures to expand and update the production program.

Already at the end of 1999, new compact A2 models appeared.

At the beginning of 2000, the production of the all-wheel drive all-terrain station wagon Allroad Quattro was mastered, the appearance of new models A3 and A4 is expected.

In 2000, the Audi program included 8 families of cars of various classes and purposes.

A significant part of them is distinguished by a wide range of power units and all-wheel drive layout.

The same year marked the 20th anniversary of the Quattro division, which produced more than 820 thousand cars on an all-wheel drive chassis in its relatively short history.

For the eleventh year now, Audi has been increasing sales of its vehicles.

Thus, according to the results of 2006, it managed to sell 905. 1 thousand cars, having exceeded the result of the previous year by 9. 2%.

In the first 6 months of 2007, sales increased by another 9. 8% to 509, 000 units.

This allows us to hope that the milestone for the sale of 1 million cars annually will be reached not in 2008, as planned, but already in 2007.

According to Audi's long-term development plans until 2015, by that time the company intends to achieve annual sales of 1. 5 million vehicles and become one of the world's largest manufacturers in the premium segment.

The total investment in the development of production for the period 2007-2011 will amount to 11. 8 billion, and the number of models produced by 2015 will increase from today's 22 to 40.
