Audi

Audi AG, part of the Volkswagen Group, has its headquarters in Ingolstadt and is one of the most venerable companies in Germany. Founder August Horch created the company name by translating his surname, which means “listen” in German, into Latin, the word “audi” (“Listen!”) being the imperative of the Latin verb “audire”. “Audi” was entered into the Trade Registry in the city of Zwickau in 1910. Audi AG also includes quattro GmbH, which was established in 1983 and has been an official vehicle manufacturer in its own right since 1996.
