The history of Audi is certainly one of the most diverse in more than 100 years of automobile history – a history that Audi helped document right from the start. Men like August Horch were there from the very beginning. He was one of those pioneering engineers who got the car up and running.
The history of the Four Rings
The Audi badge – the 'Four Rings' – is the emblem of one of the oldest car manufacturers in Germany. It symbolises the 1932 merger of the four independent motor-vehicle manufacturers: Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer. Together with the NSU brand, which joined in 1969, these companies are the roots of the present-day AUDI AG. Join us on a journey through the development of the car and the birth of Audi.
