(1985 - 1986)
Car articles about Audi 80 GTE quattro by year
Forty years ago, permanent all-wheel drive began its triumphant advance in passenger cars. Audi used the drive concept in large-scale passenger car production for the first time. It started with the original Quattro, but gradually the 4x4 concept became established in all model series. How have the cars aged, which ones have an exceptional status? Are there alternatives to the original Quattro? This report looks back to the beginnings and traces the career of all-wheel drive in Audi passenger cars.
Between 1984 and 1986, Audi built 214 Sport quattros, which were designed as the basis for rallying. While the cars sold relatively poorly at the time, prices have risen continuously since then, leaving every other Audi behind. This driving report explains how the short quattro feels behind the wheel.
50 years after Bernd Rosemeyer, records were to be broken again. With a five-valve five-cylinder engine and 650 hp, Audi launched an attack on Mercedes-Benz in 1988 and sent a specially prepared 200 Turbo Quattro to Italy. The Nardò project was preceded by a similar one with NASCAR ambitions, but it was equally disappointing. This article recalls Audi's record attempts in the USA and Italy and shows many photos of the 1988 car.
Four rings, four driven wheels, five doors and five cylinders with turbo - equipped in this way, the Audi 200 Avant Quattro was the perfect car for Switzerland - and also for actress Audrey Hepburn, who once ordered the "lhasa green" example in our photos. Thanks to its outstanding aerodynamics, the all-wheel drive truck from Ingolstadt left far behind. However, it lost valuable cargo space due to its sleek hatchback. This article presents the top version of the Audi Type 44.
