  • Mattias Ekström Vill Vinna På Zandvoort Igen
    2003-09-18 10:20 CEST Mattias Ekström vill vinna på Zandvoort igen DTM: För ett år sen vann Mattias Ekström på Zandvoort och samtidigt säkrade teamkompisen Laurent Aiello totalsegern i DTM. I år är förutsättningarna annorlunda men Mattias vill vinna igen. - När jag vann här förra året lovade jag mig själv att det inte skulle dröja länge till nästa seger så nu är det ju hög tid, säger Mattias som blev sjuk efter förra racet men räknar med att vara fit till helgens begivenhet. Zandvoort anses vara en bana som passar Abt-Audi- teamets Audi TT-R bra. Banan har många medelsnabba och snabba kurvor. Mercedes har hittills i år dominerat allra mest på snabba banor med hög toppfart. - Banan på Zandvoort är alltid en utmaning eftersom den är så hal, säger Mattias Ekström. Jag gillar det för man kan leka lite mer med bilen. Laurent Aiello vann förra årets serie just på Zandvoort men kan inte räkna med någon serieseger i år, även om det fortfarande är teoretiskt möjligt. Det är 20 poäng upp till ledaren. - Mitt mål nu är att komma topp tre i mästerskapet, säger Laurent Aiello. Det innebär att vi måste vinna de två återstående racen. Serien avslutas på Hockenheimring den 5 oktober. Tills dess kommer teamet att kämpa för en snygg avslutning på säsongen. - Det är klart att vi ska kämpa så länge vi har den minsta chans, säger teamchefen Hans-Jürgen Abt. Men det är också viktigt att bjuda på en riktig show och kanske en seger i något av racen.

  • Audi's Le Mans Return Is Shaping Up
    Audi MediaInfo Audi’s Le Mans return is shaping up • Concept stage for new Audi sports prototype largely completed • Close cooperation with fellow group brand Porsche • First race planned for January 2023 at the Daytona 24 Hours Neuburg a. d. Donau, April 29, 2021 – Audi will return to Le Mans and to sports prototype racing with an electrified sports car in the 2023 season. The successor to the successful Audi R18 is already taking shape. “The new LMDh category fits perfectly with our new set-up in motorsport,” says Julius Seebach, Managing Director Audi Sport GmbH and responsible for Motorsport at Audi. “The regulations allow us to field fascinating race cars in prestigious races worldwide. In addition, we are making use of synergies inside the Volkswagen Group with our partner strategy.” The successor to the Audi R18 is being built in close cooperation with the brands’s sister company Porsche. “A great strengh of the Volkswagen Group is the collaboration of the brands in the development of road cars,” says Seebach. “We are now transferring this proven model to motorsport. Nevertheless, the new sports prototype will be just as much a genuine Audi as the Audi RS e-tron GT that was launched recently and has also been developed on a platform shared with Porsche.” The sports prototype for the new LMDh category is currently being created at Audi Sport in parallel with the innovative SUV for the Dakar Rally. “Of course, the Dakar team is under greater time pressure, because there are only just under eight months left until our first participation in the Dakar Rally in January 2022,” says Andreas Roos, who is responsible for all factory motorsport commitments at Audi Sport.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Collaborative and dynamic future for EU automotive research On 15 November, 240 key stakeholders in automotive research and innovation met in Brussels for EUCAR’s annual conference. Innovation is key to delivering the benefits of cleaner, safer and smarter mobility for society, in the past and even more in the future. The automotive industry is Europe’s biggest private investor in research and innovation; spending more than €50 billion on R&D each year and employing more than 12 million people all over Europe. The ‘Innovating Mobility: Pushing the boundaries of automotive R&D’ conference was opened by Stefan Deix, EUCAR Director. Deix underlined that the auto industry faces many challenges, but quoted Peter Drucker to point out that “the best way to predict the future is to create it.” This motif of active collaboration was expanded upon by the reception’s key-note speakers: Jack Metthey of the European Commission’s DG for Research & Innovation, and Torbjörn Holmström, Senior Advisor to CEO Technology & Research, at the Volvo Group. Lively presentations and discussion followed with a range of experts from industry and academia. Urban Wass, EUCAR Chairman 2017, emphasised the importance of the next Framework Programme (FP9), which should focus on the further development of today’s technologies and completely new ones, as “both need to be addressed in tandem.” Research and innovation also need to produce concrete results according to Wass, who highlighted the “need to integrate new technology into vehicles, and vehicles into transport systems, providing numerous opportunities for European industry.” However, the automotive industry simply cannot do this alone.

    From Rome to Paris in 8:18 minutes: Hyundai unveils the All-New i30 Fastback N In a world record-breaking race the All-New i30 Fastback N demonstrated its successful combination of sophisticated and elegant design with the proven fun-to-drive factor of N Thierry Neuville and Gabriele Tarquini tested the All-New i30 Fastback N to the limit in fastest drive from Rome to Paris On board the first five-door hot coupe in the C-segment, Gabriele Tarquini took only 8:18.49 minutes to cover the distance between the two Danish villages The i30 Fastback N, Hyundai‘s second high-performance model in Europe, delivers maximum driving fun like the successful i30 N five-door hatchback True performance design features: The All-New i30 Fastback N with sporty appearance of N design elements September 26, 2018 – Shortly before its official world premiere at the 2018 Paris Motor Show, the All-New i30 Fastback N had already crossed the finishing line in Paris in a record-breaking road trip starting in Rome. The professional Hyundai Motorsport drivers Thierry Neuville and Gabriele Tarquini set a world record with the first five-door hot coupe in the C-segment. Driven by the company’s aspiration to always think beyond the conventional, Hyundai gave the story an unexpected twist: Neuville and Tarquini pushed the car to its limits – not by driving from the Italian to the French capital, but by competing against each other on the winding roads between Rome and Paris, located in western Denmark. Sitting behind the i30 Fastback N’s steering wheel, it took Tarquini only 8:18.49 minutes to cover the distance between the Danish villages with these famous names, winning the race by a fraction of a second.

  • At Audi Museum Mobile
    Audi MediaInfo Tradition Communications Peter Kober Telephone: +49 841 89-39628 E -mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com "From 0 to 100" at Audi museum mobile New special exhibition shows the history of the Audi 100 50 years ago, this successful model made possible Audi's entry into the upper executive segment Ingolstadt, March 21, 2018 – As part of the "From 0 to 100" special exhibition, Audi museum mobile is presenting one of the most exciting moments in the history of AUDI AG: the company entering the upper executive class with the Audi 100. From March 28 to June 24, 2018, visitors can expect to see 15 variants of this historically important model which the company premiered 50 years ago. The Audi 100 won the "Golden Steering Wheel" award five times, was crowned "Car of the Year" twice and was also voted "World Car of the Year" by a panel of motoring journalists. In all, 3.2 million units were sold which demonstrates the success which this model experienced. The premiere of the Audi 100 in 1968 was preceded by a turbulent history because its development was actually started in secret. In the mid-1960s, Volkswagen AG acquired Auto Union GmbH and prevented the company from developing any new models. This stipulation to only look after the existing models was ignored by Ludwig Kraus, then Technical Director at Auto Union GmbH. In 1965, Kraus wanted to expand the range of vehicles which the resuscitated Audi brand offered. He saw adding a model in the executive segment as the only way to keep an independent Auto Union GmbH afloat in a time when the Ingolstadt plant was being used for production of the VW Beetle.
