(1973 - 1974)
Car articles about Audi 80 GT by year
The era of sporty saloons began with the BMW 2002. Opel launched its first attacks on the Munich-based domain with its Ascona 19 SR, followed belatedly by Ford with the Escort RS 2000. Audi was the last to push for a place in the 100 hp society with the 80 GT. In 1973 a comparison test checked whether the newcomer from Ingolstadt could catch up with or even overtake its earlier competitors.
The Audi 80 GT rounded off the attractive 80 series with a sporty edition. In 1973, it was considered the best sports instrument in the 1.6-liter class. The safety paint finish and matt black accents provided a sporty touch. However, the base price of DM 10,750 was a proud feature. The test report from back then explains whether you got enough for your money.
For a long time, the small BMW was considered the sportiest saloon. Then the Audi 80 came along and slowed it down. But when the Alfasud-ti started to overtake, VW attacked with the Scirocco. Who won the race for the sportiest car of 1974?
