Audi's signature slogan is “Vorsprung durch Technik” (Progress through Technology). Audi is a premium manufacturer from Ingolstadt (Bavaria), founded in 1909 as Audiwerke August Horch & Cie. Audi's petrol range is badged TFSI, and the diesel range TDI. TFSI e is Audi's PHEV designation (a TFSI engine combined with an electric motor). The Audi e-tron is the all-electric line within VAG. The Audi RS e-tron GT is Audi Sport's top electric series.
Within the VAG group, ECUs are standardised, so a single file often fits a dozen models across Audi/VW/Skoda/Seat. APR and Revo are the leading tuning brands for Audi, right up to Stage 1+. On Audi, Stage 1 usually fits within the standard turnaround time. The premium Audi segment runs a high-output platform with Stage 2 potential. High-output Audi engines sit in the premium segment, with solid headroom for Stage 1. Audi S models are the milder performance step between the standard cars and the RS range.
Tiptronic is Audi's classic automatic for longitudinally mounted engines. S tronic is Audi's signature dual-clutch gearbox (the DSG in the Audi range). S tronic comes in dry and wet-clutch versions, each with a different torque rating.
