In 1980, during the Geneva Motor Show, the German car manufacturer presented to the public its new two-door coupé called the Audi Quattro. Produced for all of the '80s, the Italian name chosen by Audi (Quattro is the Italian word for “four”) pointed out the main feature and the most important selling point: the four-wheel drive. It was the first time that the 4x4 solution was adopted on a coupé with the goal of achieving high numbers in terms of production and sales on the market. The Audi Quattro was able to release good driving performance thanks to its frontal longitudinal engine and very good reliability in all types of road conditions. From mass production, a dedicated car for competitions was developed in 1981, and it debuted in the World Rally Championship, achieving good results. The success of “Quattro” cars is still existing today; in fact, the name has become a real “brand” that identifies all of Audi’s four-wheel-drive production.
