The slogan of Audi is Vorsprung durch Tecnik, meaning "Being Ahead through Technology."

Audi AI
The Audi AI system is an advanced driver assistance feature that Audi will offer in the future. The company also plans to offer fully autonomous driving at some point. However, there are still many legal, regulatory, and technical hurdles to overcome before this goal can come to fruition. On June 4, 2017, Audi stated that the A8 would be fully self-driving for speeds up to 60 km/h using its Audi AI. Contrary to other cars, the drivers will not have to do safety checks, such as touching the steering wheel every 15 seconds, to use this feature. The Audi A8 will therefore be the first production car to reach level 3 autonomous driving, meaning that the driver can safely turn their attention away from driving tasks. Moreover, drivers can text or watch a movie. Audi will also be the first manufacturer to use a 3D Lidar system in addition to cameras and ultrasonic sensors for their AI.

Audi is committed to evolution.
As the automotive landscape changes, Audi is changing right along with it. The latest Audi models (RS) are not for the faint-hearted. They pack massive engines with crazy horsepower that will leave someone in awe of their power, but the future for Audi is electric. Audi just revealed a stunning fully electric supercar at this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance called the PB18 e-Tron. The future is here!

Audi is planning to send a Quattro-powered Lunar Rover to the moon!
Google is conducting a competition called Lunar XPRIZE with prize money of $30 million. The competition invites scientists to build a Lunar Rover that can run on the moon's surface for 500 meters and broadcast a high-definition live feed from its surface. Audi has partnered with a team of scientists in Germany to build a Lunar Rover powered by Quattro and named it the “Audi Lunar Quattro.” We hope Audi wins the competition!

Audi Skysphere - Design to Thrill
Three new concept spheres of Audi
Audi's three new concept spheres—the Audi skysphere, Audi grandsphere, and Audi urbansphere—are designed to provide a unique driving experience. Each of the three concept vehicles, the Skysphere, Grandsphere, and Urbansphere, interprets this paradigm shift in design differently, having been created with resolute dynamism, distinction, or even long-distance travel in mind. All three of these concept spheres showcase Audi's commitment to innovation and provide a glimpse into the future of mobility.
Audi – Driving Innovation
Technology - A crucial feature of Audi
Technology development is a crucial feature of Audi. Audi is best known for its permanent four-wheel-drive system, called Quattro. Today, Quattro is widely used in most Audi models and offers drivers more safety and pleasure in any situation, such as on snowy roads. Compared with Audi's successful performance on snowy roads, its competitor realized it was the right time to fit the four-wheel-drive system into a saloon and sports car. In the comfort aspect, Audi introduced an air-adapted suspension. This equipment could adjust the suspension to achieve the best performance in different road conditions. In 2010, the new Audi A8 was equipped with 8-speed transmission, offering smooth and quick acceleration to achieve fuel efficiency. Audi also cooperated with the Italian supercar Lamborghini to achieve sports value. For example, the S8 and RS models are equipped with Lamborghini's engine and transmission system.
Is Audi reliable?
When it comes to reliability, Audi is generally considered to be a reliable brand. Audi, once described by Consumer Reports as "a sinkhole of service problems," is now the top-ranked European brand in the magazine's annual reliability rankings. Audi, one of several Volkswagen (VLKAF) luxury brands, has become known for producing high-quality cars with cutting-edge design and technology over the last few years, according to the report. Undoubtedly, Audi vehicles are well-built and tend to hold up well over time. Audi is worth considering if you are looking for a reliable luxury car.
