Model range of audi and years of release. The history of the cult model Audi A6. Audi A6 C6 is not produced

It was upgraded, and the model name was changed to A6. Sedans and universals were equipped with gasoline "fours" 1.8 and 2.0 (125-140 l.), In line five-cylinder engine 2.5 (133 l.) And V-shaped "six" volume of 2.6 and 2.8 liters (150 -193 l.) There were Turbodiesels 1.9 TDI and 2.5 TDI. Buyers were offered versions with sled bodies and wagon, the drive could be front or rear. The most powerful version of the car was called.

2 generation (C5), 1997-2004

Audi A6 second generation, still has a version with a sedan and wagon bodies, began to release in 1997. This model proposed a broad gamma of power units. Gasoline engines had a volume of 1.8 to 3.0 liters (125-250 liters.), Including turbocharging motors. Turbodizels were two - 1.9 TDI and 2.5 TDI, different power options. In addition to the "charged" version (335 liters.), There is also heavy-duty with a motor, developing 444 liters. from.

In 1999, a stepless variator began to offer for the front-wheel drive "A-sixth", at the same time an off-road stationary appeared. In 2001, Audi A6 was updated: the car upgraded the suspension, the gearbox, the gamma of the motor was updated. In total, more than 1.2 million A6 models were released at the factories in Germany and China.

3 generation (C6), 2004-2011

The third generation car, who made his debut in 2004, became even larger, more comfortable and received a richest equipment (writing, MMI multimedia interface). Especially for the Chinese market was prepared a long-base version of the sedan. In 2008, Audi A6 was restyled.

4 generation (C7), 2011-2018

The fourth generation of the Audi A6 sedan began to produce at the factory in Nearzulme in December 2010, European sales started in April 2011. In the fall of the same year, the version was debuted with the body of the station wagon Avant, and in 2012 - "off-road" wagon Allroad.

The wheel base of the car became more compared to the predecessor, instead of the hydraulic steering wheel, the car received an electric powerful, and all-wheel drive versions appeared a new transmission (asymmetrical differential with a multi-disc clutch). Part of the body panels of the machine were made of aluminum.

The list of options appeared, for example, completely LED headlights, active cruise control, car hold system in the strip.

The gamma of power units consisted of 2.0 TFSI and 3.0 TFSI gasoline turbosi, "atmospheric" 2.8 FSI, as well as turbo diesel engines of two and three liters. The front-wheel drive machines were completed with variasts, all-wheel drive - seven-step robotic gearbox, although for basic versions it was possible to choose a six-speed "mechanics".

In 2012, the charged version of Audi S6 appeared, and a year later - even more powerful Audi RS6. In 2012-2014, a hybrid version of the model was produced.

In the Russian market, sedans and universals Audi A6 were officially sold. In 2011, prices began with a mark of 1,660,000 rubles per car with a 2.0 TFSI engine (180 liters with.), Front-wheel drive and manual box. For several years, the large-sized assembly of machines for Russia was carried out at the factory in Kaluga.

One legend says. In the house of one of the companions of Khortha walked a rapid debate about the name. At this time, the son of Latin taught Latin in the next room. And when one of the shareholders exclaimed: "Listen to the other side!", The boy is something in a joke, whether it completely seriously translated this phrase to Latin: "Audiatur et altera Pars!" Surprised debaters realized that "horch" (in German - "listen, listen") translates to Latin as "Audi".
New enterprise chorch Start C rather solid and powerful machines. Since 1910, "Audi-A10 / 22" was produced. Cylinders, as was customary in those days, were scored pairwise. The four-cylinder engine of the working volume of 2612 cm3 developed 22 hp The company advertised himself with big posters with the word "Audi" and the image of a huge ear. Thus appeared one of the most famous and so-old AW TomBilli brands.
1920 - Audi Automobil-Werke AG introduced a new Audi trademark. In accordance with fashionable at that time, the business style of Lucian Bernhard, Lucian Bernhard, changed the Audi emblem decorated with vignettes. Now a new emblem (gold letters on a blue background in Ovale) decorated the AW Tomobyl radiators (when in 1965 the first Audi of the post-war time went to the market, he had exactly this trading sign).

At this place of the history of Audi, it is necessary to make a small retreat: the fact is that in the 1930s, Audi entered the AUTO-Union concern, smoking four firms (from where they appeared in the 4 interlaced rings emblem). What kind of firms? Audi actually Audi, Horch, DKW and Wanderer. Each of these firms is worthy of their own excursion in history, but ... We will tell only one thing - DKW. His AW Torok, the Father and the chief designer was Yogen Skaf Rasmussen.

Jorgen Skaf Rasmussen was born in 1878 in the city of Nakskov in Denmark. He received engineering education in Technical Schools Mittwatide and Chemnitsa, in Germany. With it, in fact, the whole life path of this outstanding personality is connected. In 1903 in Chemnitz, he founded his first enterprise - a reinforcement company, where ten workers worked. But things were not bad, and in 1906, Rasmussen for 55 thousand brands bought a small textile factory in the CCR.
Rasmussen understood perfectly well that such orders with the end of the war would decline - and in 1916 he built an experimental parroidicale. To create this vehicle, he prompted the acute deficit of gasoline in the country and experience in the production of steam technology accumulated at the factory. For the construction of a baroque, he attracted engineer Matissen (Matissen), which before that in the US developed the famous ferromobils "White". Rasmussen was preparing for the production of passenger and cargo parroids, but his plans were not destined to come true. However, something from them still remains - the registered brand "DKW" - "Steam AW Tomobil" (Dampf Kraft Wagen).

At the very end of the war, the case was the case of Rasmussen with the German designer of Hugo Rup (Hugo Ruppe) at the time. He was engaged in small gasoline engines since 1908, when the four-stroke motor was designed for the enterprise of his father, which produced AW Tomobil "Piccolo" and "Appolo".

Ruppe was different from the first to create air-cooled engines, and also developed and patented the ignition of its own clock. Using this patent, he who came with him to Rizner Rizner (N. Riesner) was designed in 1919 a two-stroke air cooling engine with a working volume of 25 cm3. Thousands of these motors intended for children's AW Tomobors were released in the CSW and the abbreviation "DKW" began to decrypt as a "boy's dream" (Des Knaben Wuntsch).

The project of the first full-fledged AW Tomobile Rasmussen entrusted the Emil Fischer's Emil Designer. The body of the prototype was wooden, he rest over two semi-elliptic springs, behind - on one transverse. A two-cylinder two-stroke opposite motor of air cooling had a working volume of 500 cm3. First, the engine, gearbox and differential was supposed to be combined into one block, which would increase the cost of the machine - therefore it was soon abandoned from such a decision.

The beginning of the release of AW Tomobile was delayed, and Fisher moved to another company "S. B.Automobile", where in 1921 they made electric vehicles. But experiments with AW tomobiles "DKW" were continued. On the Berlin AW Tosalon was shown a prototype with a motor located behind, and a drive wedge-shaped belt, and in 1926 a light machine with an electric motor "DEW", developed by Professor Klinberg - the fruit of joint activities "DKW", "AEG" and "AFA" . The body was made of glued plywood, transverse springs were used. A total of 500 such electric cars were sold.

Rasmussen's activity has already beyond the framework of one, albeit the resulting, firm. In 1928, he acquired a controlling stake in the Audi plant, which at that time was in a difficult situation, and then bought in Detroit license and technological equipment for the production of six and eight-cylinder engines "Rickkenbacker". Initially, it was assumed to sell these engines to third-party manufacturers, but there were no buyers and they began to put them on "Audi". At the same time, the eight-cylinder "Audi SS Zvikkau" turned out to be for as many as 5000 brands cheaper than the predecessor - six-cylinder "P IMPERATOR".
In October 1930, Audi in October 1930 began work on the front-wheel drive AW Tomobile with a motorcycle engine "DKW" (350 cm3) and using Tracta hinges, transverse springs, narrow frame. For half a year, three prototypes were built - one with an engine 350 cm3, and two others - with motors of 500 cm3. But in order to withdraw "Audi" from the crisis, Rasmussen found a faster way - I bought a license for the "Peugeot-5 / 25SV" engine. This engine was put on the newly emerged front-wheel drive "DKW", they ordered it "Audi-p 5/30" and in 1931 released to the market.
The cheapest AW Tomobile Berlin AW Tosalon 1931 was just a new front-wheel drive "DKW FRONT". The two-stroke dual-cylinder engine (600 cm3) developed 18 liters. from. It was combined into one block with a gearbox and differential. True, very simple in the design of the frame turned out to be a weak place of AW Tomobila and was repeatedly increased in the future. Since 1932, the upgraded "DKW-F2" with a reinforced frame and increased brakes was built. From the very beginning, the car was collected not only in the CSW, but also at the Audi plant. In 1932, Rasmussen led the active negotiations with the director of the Saxon State Strubbank Dr. Bruun (Bruhn).

Their result was Bible on January 1, 1933 of the famous Concern "Auto Union", which included the "Horch", "Wanderer", "Audi" and "DKW" plants. Two years later, on the initiative of Rasmussen, the production of AW Tomobius "Audi" was translated into the factory "Horch", and on the factory "Audi" only the front-wheel drive "DKW" was done. Since 1934, with the introduction of the AW distribution system in Germany, the Tosteods of the Third Reich began to feel the sharp lack of metal, rubber, other materials. The plant "DKW" could easily produce 5500 AW tomobills per month and, in principle, was able to bring this figure to 10,000, and only 5,200 cars did.
Metal deficit brought the guide "Auto Union" to the idea of \u200b\u200bplastic body. The work includes the concerns "IG Farbengroup" and "Dynamite AG". The first plastic details of the trunk lid and doors began. The success of the front-wheel drive "DKW" was huge. Simple, inexpensive, but shipyful and durable cars in 1938 were paid by buyers for half a year ago. These AW are tomobyl - among other trophy - knew well in our post-war. The merciless humor of the winners has deciphered "DKW" in its own way: "Fool, who has invented." The design of cars and the truth was too unusual for us.
The Empire "AUTO Union" destroyed war and the post-war separation of Germany. It remains to say a few words about her heritage. In Germany, in Ingolstadt, in 1949, the company "AUTO UNION" was anew, where the AW Tomobyl was built under the brands "DKW" and "AUTO UNION" of the prewar model "F9" with two and four-door bodies.

1950 - the production of the first post-war passenger AW Tomobila Auto Union began. It was about the DKW model: a master class F 89 P in the form of a sedan and a quadruple Karmann convertible. Since for the production of passenger AW TomBills in Ingolstadt did not have a sufficient number of production areas, Auto Union took the former territory of Rheinmetall-b or Sing AG in Dusseldorf, where until the end of 1961 and passenger AW Tomobyl DKW were made.

1970 - Wide exports of Audi in the United States began. First, exports to the United States was limited to Audi Super 90 (Sedan and Wagon), as well as New Audi 100. Since 1973, Audi 80 has joined them, which, unlike the European version, has existed both as Audi 80 Universal (actually VW Passat Variant with more high level of configuration). Later, the Audi model received their own designations in the US market: Audi 4000 for Audi 80, Audi 5000 for Audi 100. However, repeated cases of manufacturer's responsibility disorders for their products from the mid-80s led to the decline in Audi supplies to the United States.
1977 - With the completion of the NSU production line, an AUDI font sign in red-brown oval was introduced as a branded logo (since 1982, the branded oval was also decorated with the side surfaces of the Wings of AW Tombs).
1980 - the all-wheel drive sports coupe attracted great attention on the Audi booth at the Geneva AW Tomobyl Salon. For the first time, a passenger all-wheel drive high-power AW TomBig was offered in the form of Audi Quattro with the concept of the drive used so far only in cargo AW tomobiles and SUVs. The idea of \u200b\u200bsuch a Tomobila's passenger AW appeared in the winter of 1976/77 during test races on the VW ILTIS SUV Bundeswehr. The magnificent behavior of this AW Tomobila when driving in ice and the snow led to the thoughts to introduce a four-wheel drive VW ILTIS in Serial Audi 80. A variant of high power was also developed - a five-cylinder turboctor 2.2 l with a capacity of 147 kW / 200 liters, presented in the fall of 1979. from.
1981 - On the January Rally, the Audi Quattro Motor Debut took place in Austria. From this point on, the all-wheel drive power supply from Ingolstadt produced a coup on the international stage of the rally and racing.

1982 - Audi 80 Quattro gave the launch of the large-scale production of a permanent full drive. Gradually, the Quattro concept was also offered for other Audi models.
1990 - Audi AG first participated in the German Tourist AW Tomobiles Championships (DTM). The winner of this season was Hans-Joachim pieces, speaking on Audi V8. Next year, Audi with Frank Biil drove all the same models was able to successfully protect this title. In December 1990, a new Audi 100 was presented (internal designation from 4), which for the first time in the history of the company began to be offered also with a six-cylinder engine V-shaped. Compact (128 kW, 174 l.) A strong unit with an engine capacity of 2.8 liters was the shortest and easy-to-class.

At the Geneva AW Tomobilo Salon in March 1990, Audi AG introduced Audi Duo, Serial Audi 100 Avant Quattro, in which an electric motor with a rear axle drive was also installed in except for an ordinary gasoline engine. If necessary, the drive could be switched from the gasoline engine to the electric. This hybrid AW Tomobile has been developed, in particular, for use in the field of utilities.

Today's image of the brand is kept on four principles: the use of high technologies, emotionality, sportiness and global claims. Each fulfills a specific task, and all together pursue the main goal: in the next five or six years, at least double sales, to be equal to world sales and perception with the main competitors - BMW and Mercedes-Benz.
However, at the headquarters of Audi AG, these principles are also called tools that are solved by quite specific tasks for the seizure of markets. So, the company first made a four-wheel drive in the sedan, and this attracted new customers: if in 1995 such models were sold about 50 thousand, then in 2002 - four times more. Almost seven years old Audi was the only one who used a direct fuel injection on diesel engines. This made it possible to reduce the noise of the motor, increased the environmental friendliness and speed of AW Tombs. As a result, the sale of such cars for the same seven years has grown from 100 thousand to 300 thousand per year. And the manufacture of large series AW tombs with aluminum bodies generally influenced the development of the entire world AW Movendustria.

The bet on the emotionality of the brand was done when they left the image of the mass machine. "The atmosphere surrounding the client is very important in the premium segment - the head of the Global Communication Strategy Strategies Audi Ag Game Lisel says. - By purchasing an expensive model, the person first of all buys emotions. He wants to feel the exclusivity of AW Tomobile and the relationship to himself, so Everything needs to be done on the highest category. "
First of all, this level must match the product itself: its quality, specifications, design. About how serious about this is related to the company, one can judge today's development of the model range. Since 1995, one year of new models began to appear annually. Starting with A4, the Germans were issued A3 and A4 Avant for three years, the A6 business model, the A6 Avant and TT Coupe stationer. In the next four years, TT Roadster and Ovdi Allroad Quattro, Compact A2 and NEW A4, Limousine A8 and New A4 A4, A4, and the second generation A8 appeared on the market. Finally, in 2003 there was a new version of the A3 model and three completely innovative concept - Pikes Peak, Nuvolari and Le Mans, presented in the interval from January to September. Such "rapidity" is particularly impressive if it takes into account that the creation of each model takes about five years and up to two billion euros.

Following the general concept of the brand, the company gives all new sports character. This is expressed in excellent dynamic characteristics, powerful engines, suspensions, in the guise of machine and interior design. Moreover, in addition to basic models, sports modifications with an index s and supersportive RS are produced. RS6, for example, impressive: His 450 horsepower literally provoke on rapid throws and rebuildings, and on AW Tobane only the electronic speed limiter did not allow to jump over 250 km / h. But marketing policies require even more aggressive fitness of the sports spirit, and Audi actively sponsors the mountain skiing competitions, golf, sailing, supports two famous European football clubs.
All this works on the fourth postulate of the company, which sounds like this: Audi is one of the largest players in the global market. For this, dealer networks are expanding in various regions of the planet, the joint venture is created to work on the promising Chinese market, the share in Europe is expanding, where the German brand is now owned by 3.6% of the market. The overall level of the company's claims, business and finance specialist Jurgen de Grayove tried to explain on a specific example: "In the US, we sell eighty-five thousand AW Tomobills per year, and BMW is a quarter of a million. We intend to initiate our sales rates, and then oust Competitions. "
To implement such ambitious plans, the company's business must be debugged as a clock. In Audi AG, it is believed that the situation is exactly the case, and boldly introduce various departments and production. First of all, this is the plant itself, more precisely, one of the plants, as AW Tomobili firm produces at three European enterprises. One is located in Hungary, where the TT model is partially manufactured. In Hungary, a motor factory of the company operates, where 1.3 million engines are made annually, of which one half goes to Audi, and the second on other brands, among which Skoda and Seat. In the German city, Necarzulme produces solid models with aluminum bodies - A8, A6, Allroad, as well as the "baby" A2. The Audi Security division is based on, on which armored business sedans A6 and Limousines A8 are collected. But the largest plant of the company is located in the town of Ingolstadt, which is an hour from Munich. Working in three shifts, it produces up to 780 A3 daily, almost as much A4 and about two hundred TT models.

However, one production of ownership of Audi in Ingolstadt is not limited: they occupy almost 2 million hectares here, and this is more than the territory of the Principality of Monaco. It is here that the headquarters of Audi AG, designers and designers work, are the main marketing department, major instrumental production and technical center of the company. By the way, the latter is considered one of the most advanced in the world: its aerodynamic complex allows you to "develop" speed up to 320 km / h, and the temperature is omitted to -60c. This is free of this other participants in the Mother Concern - the Volkswagen and Seat brand, in the form of sponsorship for training, the complex receives German Bobsleists, but it is leased to other customers - 2700 euros per hour.
The plant also stubbles with all sorts of electronics. For example, the AW Tomatization Coefficient of the A4 production plant in 2000 was brought to 83% in 2000. For this I had to solve a lot of problems, including the management of robots. According to the conveyor, one after another is moving different modifications of AW Tombs, and for each requires a set of technological operations. Therefore, the sensor is attached to the body with a task, and the electronics reads the data and without interference with people control the equipment.
But on the final assembly site is crowded: here without human eyes and hands can not do. Moreover, each employee becomes a kind of controller, checking the quality of previous operations. If the colleague error noticed, the signal will give, and the flaws is instantly corrected. In the account of each second - in the case of a complete stop of the conveyor, the company will cost 13 thousand euros.

However, the firm also takes care of its workers. Let's say, not so long ago the body over the assembly line was hung at an angle of 45 degrees - it was believed that the collectors are so more convenient. However, the company ordered a study, and it turned out that it was less harmful to work with a horizontally hanging body for the spine, after which all lines were redested at the factories. An example is: Under the entire assembly conveyor, an excellent parquet is on. Noticing my surprised look, accompanying explained: "The tree is not so tough and cold as concrete, and this is very important for the health of people."

The work of the Audi designers for years is painted literally on weeks. Recently, 60 months left for the creation of a new model in Audi, but due to the tough competition now it was necessary to switch to a shorter cycle of 50 months (a little more than four years). In this cycle, a schedule of work of all divisions, including designers, is scheduled.

Work on the machine begins with a document that prepares a product planning group. In accordance with the prospects of the market, it issues the economy where the dimensions of the future AW Tomobila are indicated, the body type, number of places, the main dynamic parameters, the cost level. After that, for eight months, artists can offer almost anything. But with the condition: first, it must meet the basic principles of the brand (innovation, sportiness, emotionality), secondly, to comply with the age-old traditions and style of the brand. The fact is that in Audi firmly adhere to the principle - in the design of the model range there should be evolution, and not a revolution.

Subsequently, only two projects will be selected from the masses of ideas, and work will go on the next stage. Here, three divisions should be submitted their sketches - by exterior, interior and color solutions. And within them there is its own specialization: designers for seats, upholstery, instrument panels, controls. And about 25 months after the start of two options, the final one is selected, and there is a plasticine model on the 33rd month on a scale of 1: 1.

By this time, designers should prepare accurate images of all parts, including such small, as buttons, appliances, joints and seams. Moreover, each bar must bear the semantic or functional load. Florian Gulden, one of the designers of Audi, tells how certain decisions can influence the associations of people. Some lines and parts emphasize the stability and power of AW Tomobila, others are its swiftness, the third gives a sense of security and peace.

If everything is done true, then for 15-18 months before the start of production, an almost final version is created, which is agreed with technologists and is set at one of the international AW Tosals. This version is so close to the serial sample that they even make stamps for many nodes and tools. However, some amendments can be made after the exhibition: the respirations of the press, dealers, the public play a major role.

Audi AG's huge complex in Ingolstadt is an excellent example of business development in accordance with the strategy planned. Deciding to promote a prestigious brand, the company made a maximum so that customers "buy" here the most positive emotions. And next to the factory workshops, Audi-Forum was elevated - a special client center. In 1992, he was opened by the legendary Ferdinand Pih, who then headed the Volkswagen concern, but he remembered the beginning of his AW tomobile career in Audi AG.

Now in Audi-Forum includes a museum of the company, restaurant, offices, AW stores of TAKA accessories and company attributes. However, his main part is a huge, the size of the stadium, the corporate hangar, which became the prototype of modern Audi dealerships. It was in it that the standards of the showrooms of the brand, as a large amount of light and air, the use of special anti-glare mirrors and spotlights, the creation of comfortable zones for customers was laid. "All this pursues one goal - to create an atmosphere of a holiday memorable event," says the center of the center of Gunter Gerlich. "Every customer must experience its importance and exclusivity. Every day we release up to two hundred eighties of new AW tomobors of all company models. And come for They are not only Germans, but also residents of other European countries. "

The most curious thing is that Audi-Forum does not sell cars - orders for them and dealers accept payment. And in Ingolstadt, you can only get AW Tomobyl myself. But how is it done! On the appointed day, buyers arrive in the company. And while the car prepares for extradition, customers get acquainted with the museum, they are watering them in factory workshops, feed at the expense of the company in the restaurant. Immediately you can buy souvenirs, accessories and even order additional equipment - sports chairs, an exclusive steering wheel or alloy wheels.

And when the time comes to get the keys, the client will report this on the speakerphone and will also display information on the light scoreboard. It shows that every quarter of an hour is the owners of a new AW, another five or ten people or firms that also often want to turn the purchase process into pleasure. After that - a small briefing consultant, a solemn start of the engine, a photo for memory - and on the road. Obviously, all this is actually attractive: according to the staff of the center, many customers come here on the second, and even by the third time, taking with them wives, children, buddies. And in general, almost a quarter of all AW Tombs sold in Germany is released from Audi-Forum.

The Ingolstadt Auto industry was always famous for its durable body. German cars imported into the territory of our country since the USSR. The legendary 100 Audi series has conquered the hearts of many, and even now separate models of those times run on the roads of our country together with the new versions of this popular automaker from the "Great German Troika".

Family 100.

ATTENTION! Found a completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption! Do not believe? Auto mechanic with 15 years old also did not believe, until he tried. And now it saves 35,000 rubles per year in gasoline!

Audi 100, debuted in 1969 with an engine per 100 hp Thanks to this motor, the first car of the family and received such a name.

Initially, the body 100 assumed a 2- or 4-door version of the sedan, but later other versions, including the coupe, were released later.

The next 100 appears initially in the United States, selling there as Audi 5000. In 1977, the American version was removed from production and replaced with a 5-door hatchback.

The second generation of Ingolstadt cars 100, these are new power units. Of course, among them a special place was taken by the "five" by 2.2 liters.

44th series

The new sample of the cell of the series comes out in the body number 44. This is the third generation of 100 models, which became incredibly popular in class B.

Wagon avanta from the same series. He saw the light in 1983, and in two years he leaves all-wheel drive quatro.

45th series

The fourth generation of 100 models is more known as C4. In this case, all the characteristics of the car were improved.

The newest exterior style has become a distinctive feature of the entire Audi family of this time. Reliable comments from the galvanized body and its parts for their design. The design is so good that it cannot be called outdated today. This makes it possible to believe the stylish molding, roof rails, door shape, stylish color and much more.

Conveyor assembly of the body number 45 was put on a higher level, the interior decoration deserved only one praise, the equipment was introduced modern at that time the electronics, the core and its parts were modernized and tuning.

The indicator of the capacity, economy and excellent SHVI is a business card of the entire family 100. Predecessors and competitors clearly chrome in front of the Cotome Audi model in this regard, the galvanized body of which caused envy and admiration.

Here are just a few major distinguishing features that allocate a new car among analogs in the classroom:

• Excellent indicators in terms of AEE, ergonomics and capacity;
• The exterior hit the originality: Molding, color of a new type, reinforced body parts, galvanized frame - all this was only in plus;
• Powerful power plants;
• Good handling;
• Convenient salon and capacity, which contributed not only to the improved body type, but also other innovative solutions.

46 series or A6

The final bar 100 model received in the body number 45 (90-94). It is almost an ideal passenger car of its time, Audi 45 has been released more than 600 thousand pieces. Replaced 100 AUDI A6 model in a series 46.

The second generation of A6 46, debuting in 1997, was collected on the newest platform C5. Factory body number - 4B. Type - Universal Avant, on the basis of which a new QUATTRO SUV was developed and sedan.

The strength of the body before external influences was at the height of the old versions of the 45th series. Galvanized metal A6 46 also did not pass before rust. It was able to hold out in a constant form of years 10. As for the guarantee from the manufacturer on the LCP, it was 3 years. There is nothing surprising in this, because the body was subjected to the newest and advanced galvanizing technologies, and the painting was carried out on innovative equipment.

The new color of the body 46 series, competently decorated molding on separate parts of the metal frame, upgraded part of the chassis - all this was applied by engineers and constructors on the A6 of Solna.

Modernization of the cell of the Audi model

As mentioned above, today it runs a lot of used audi 100 models. Many people resort to tuning, in order to rejuvenate the favorite "horses". In particular, the tuning studio offers a lot of interesting solutions for models number 44 and 45.

Traditionally, a stylish molding is applied to various parts of the body, a new bumper is installed, a grille and anti-cycle. Having made a labeling of the cabin, updating the color, and changing the optics, you can beautifully finish the stage of modernization.

No exception in terms of modernization and A6. Again, you can update the body color so that the coloring meets the fashionable requests of modernity. You can also use molding by setting stylish pads on the hood, doors or trunk.

Note. A good and correctly established molding has a positive effect not only on the aesthetic component, but also significantly increases the resistance to counter-flow air.

Audi 80.

This modification of the Ingolstadt car from 1966 to 1996 was produced. It is the machine a medium-sized vehicle resembling Volkswagen Passat (nothing surprising, because they have the same platform).

It will be useful to know that 80 came to change Audi F103 or just 60. This old audience could be distinguished from the cell model C1 on external signs. Body parts in 60 were smaller, and the signal signals were located on the front wings. Color and color was limited to a pair of shades.

80 debuted in 1973. In the States, the car called Audi Fox.

The front suspension 80 deserves separate attention. This is MacPherson. As for the rear axle, it is fixed and maintained by several structural elements.

The appearance of 80 was decided to change in 1976. Optics received square forms instead of round, and the upgraded body began to call tour 82.

In 1978, 80 transferred to the B2 platform. Behind the design of the body began to answer Klaus Luthe, who soon changed Italian Judjaro.

The type of body of the new 80 B2 represented the 2- and 4-door sedan.

B2 turned out to be an incredibly flexible and cost-effective platform. Many elements, color and execution Molding components were borrowed from Coupe.

1986 marked by a new platform 80 called B3, which no longer contacted Volkswagen in-series. The new version of the vehicle had an innovative AED form, fully galvanized frame and several amplification options.

The galvanized body allowed the manufacturer to give easily a warranty for several years of trouble-free operation.

On the same platform B3 was gathered coupe 1988 G.V. True, number 80 in the name of the car lowered, and it was more famous as Audi Coupe.

Another new body tour 8a appears in 1989. It is not much different from the predecessor tour 89, although the rubber molding, going along the side, has become much already. The metamorphosis has been suspended. In particular, the racks stabilizers in front obtained hinges that are tied with a depreciation resistant.

On the B3 platform, the sports version 80 was also developed called S2.

1993 was marked by the release of the new platform B4. Audi S2 immediately receives a 6-speed transmission and new bodies: sedan and wagon.

The B4 platform was used and as a basis for Audi RS2 Avant, which is a sports station wagon.

The B4 platform is rightly named with cardinal modernization B3. Tour 8c or B4 applied a number of innovative solutions that have been told on the line only positively.

As you know, since 1995, 80 was renamed A4. On the modern A4, a full-fledged restyling was held. Designers improved and upgraded a lot of external car panels. For example, they lowered the lid of the trunk of the sedan already by 20 cm and improved the luggage compartment, turning it into a practical shipment.

Due to the consistent relief of structures on A4, conducted using computer technologies, it was possible to reduce the risk of drift even on a wet road.

The German company Audi is known to lovers of cars for a long time, as a manufacturer of machines with an exquisite design, the presence of modern technologies and, of course, the magnificent quality of body assembly. Let's find out which body is and were in Ingolstadtsy in the whole story.

Classification of models

ATTENTION! Found a completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption! Do not believe? Auto mechanic with 15 years old also did not believe, until he tried. And now it saves 35,000 rubles per year in gasoline!

Audi's time begins back in 1909, when a certain August, Horch managed to organize a traffic police. A year later, the first audi-a world was released. Only here is the real story of the automotive company begins in 1965. It was at this time that a controlling stake in Audi bumps a well-known German Volkswagen Concern, which became a namoor of large-scale developments and successful innovation inside Audi.

Model 100.

It appears on the market in 1968. Buyers immediately attracted a sports profile of a new body, and the Audi Quattro admirers released a little later were glad to complete the drive.

The AUDI family is essentially the best collection of models with a practically "unhappy" body. On the territory of our country, 100 of all generations are well known. At one time, cars were imported into the USSR, although more used, in huge quantities.

Since 1985, the body has begun to be made from OM (galvanized metal). It helped to eradicate the effect of corrosion on the metal component of the car almost 10-20 or more.

Today, cars of the family 100 are not rare in our country and near abroad for a number of reasons.

A4.

A modern car called A4 came to shift 100 models. A model was produced in various types of body since 1994. The A4 version is considered to be a continuation of the Audi F103 line, debuting in the market in the 1970-80. The number of A4 issued was quite limited, which is explained by the company's uncertainty in the success of the model.

Today A4 is produced in 2 types of body: wagon and sedan. As for the drive, it is on A4 or front, or full.

Note. The uniqueness A4 is that it is one of the most economical machines of his time. For example, on a diesel version with a motor of 1.9 liters, you can drive on one tank 1000 km and more.

A6.

The real successor of the "STR" family is a model called A6. As you know, a hundred-made Audi model has suffered restyling in 1994. The shape of the hood and the luggage compartment has changed, the model was equipped with the newest DVS.

Today A6 is available in 2 types of body: 4-door sedan and 5-door wagon. A sports version is also popular, better known as C6, and a version with a full-wheel drive Audi A6 Quattro.

Note. In the last generation, the A6 model was transformed into more compact and at the same time spacious machines equipped with various innovative pieces. So, among the latter, you can call the MMI Touch Touch Panel and the ESP system with the settings for a sports car.

Audi C4 - and so called the "six". It is in the new body C4, a hundredth model received its logical development, while retaining the corporate identity of the Ingolstadt car and the series specifically.

First of all, consider the body C4. Compared to previous versions of the cell model, he not only received galvanized, but in addition he was strengthened. A new type of suspension and a completely redetected C4 salon became a business card restyling cell model Audi.

Since 1991, universals appear in the C4 body called the Avant. Only now the new wagon received the volume of the trunk, which is noticeably different from the previous versions not in the best, and for the worse. The new trunk was accompanied by only 1310 liters. The sedan in terms of cargo capacity everything was in order - 510 liters.

As for the manageability and passability of cars in the C4 body, they have noticeably increased after the appearance of Quattro with a full drive. On this SUV with excellent staffing and high level of passive safety, the most "heavy" roads could be drove.

C6.

Audi C6 or S6 was released in 2014 in the body of the sedan. The length of the car was 493 cm, width - 187 cm, and height - 145 cm. On the 4-door sedan, a warranty was given without limiting the run for 2 years, which meant the supernavodacity of the car in all plans (of course, Russian roads from the category "A'l Mud And the swamp "did not take into account).

Unique Charisma C6 immediately attracted to the car of potential buyers. The new C6 was able to conquer the branded wheels in the form of blades, visually aggressive appearance and sports athleticity.

C6 sedan refers to business class cars, having the characteristics of a full-fledged sports car. Regarding the power plants: the Eight of TFSI was installed on C6. The new motor has lost 1.2 l of its volume. This in no way affected the worsening of the dynamics, but the car became more economical.

Note. The new Audi C6 behaved confidently on any roads, including on wet. Thanks to the full drive system and other innovations, the sedan easily passed various turns and bends of the roadbed during the test drives conducted.

A8.

Automatic luxury segment AUDI A8 is the succession of the legendary model V8. But if the predecessor went out only in the all-wheel drive variety, A8 was offered in 2 versions to choose from. The buyer could become the owner of the front-wheel drive A8 or all-wheel drive.

Motors on A8 were installed exceptionally powerful gasoline. As for the box, until 1996, 4 automatic transmission in MODELS COPP was 4.2 liters, but since 1997, cars began to be equipped with a 5-speed automatic machine. The mechanics were invited to choose versions with less powerful power plants.

Recently, A8 with 4.2-liter DVS integrates with a 6-speed mechanic and a 5-speed automatic transmission.

Exceptional in full understanding of this word at the body model. It is aluminum, and 8 cm is longer than the predecessor. Despite the weight gain of 215 kg, the new A8 continues to be one of the lightest cars in its class. This contributes, of course, aluminum body and other innovative technical solutions.

Audi TT.

The compact coupe from the Ingolstadt automaker the world saw in the form of a TT model. It has been produced since 1998, although the development began another 4 years earlier.

The new coupe went out in the 4-seater version. In addition, the TT model went out as a 4-seater roadster.

The body of this car deserves only one praise. Imagine that body panels communicated with each other not simple, but laser welding. Frames or chassis were going completely in Ingolstadt, and then drove into the Hungarian town of Gier, where the car was refined.

In conclusion, I would like to remind you that the Audi cars are always appreciated in our country. They were well bought and buying, which proves the originality and versatility of models. You can learn more about various body versions from the table, photo materials and other publications of our site.
