  • History of AUDI
    УДК 811.111: 629. 331 (1-87) R. Elenevich, A. Mileiko History of AUDI Belarusian National Technical University Minsk, Belarus У Originally in 1885, automobile company Wanderer wasТ established, later becoming a branch of Audi AG. Franz Fikentscher suggested the word "Audi", which translatedН from Latin means “listen” a new name for the company. The first Audi automobile, the Audi Type A 10/22Б hp (16 kW) Sport-Phaeton, was produced in 1915, followed by the successor Type B 10/28PS [1]. Audi started with a 2,612 cc inline-fourй engine model Type A, followed by a 3,564 cc model,и as well as 4,680 cc and 5,720 cc models. These cars were successful even in sporting events. The first six-cylinder modelр Type M, 4,655 cc appeared in 1924. August Horch left theо Audiwerke in 1920 for a high position at the ministry of transport, but he was still involved with Audi as a member ofт the board of trustees. In September 1921, Audi becameи the first German car manufacturer to present a production car, the Audi Type K, with left-handed drive. Left-handз drive spread and established dominance during the 1920sо because it provided a better view of oncoming traffic, making overtaking safer. In August 1928, Jørgen Rasmussen,п the owner of Dampf-Kraft-Wagen (DKW), acquiredе the majority of shares in Audiwerke AG. In the same year, Rasmussen bought the remains of the U.S. automobile Рmanufacturer Rickenbacker, including the manufacturing equipment for eight-cylinder engines. These engines were used in Audi Zwickau and Audi Dresden models that were launched 430 in 1929.

  • The Porsche Type List
    The Porsche Type List When Professor Ferdinand Porsche started his business, the company established a numeric record of projects known as the Type List. As has been reported many times in the past, the list began with Type 7 so that Wanderer-Werke AG did not realize they were the company’s first customer. Of course, as a result, Porsche’s famous car, the 356 as defined on the Type List, was actually Porsche’s 350th design project. In reviewing the Porsche Type List enclosed on this website, you might notice several interesting aspects. First, although there is a strong chronological alignment of Type numbers, it is certainly not perfect. No official explanation exists as to why this occurs. It is possible that Type numbers were originally treated only as an informal configuration and data management tool and today’s rigorous examination of Porsche history is but an aberration of 20/20 hindsight. Secondly, you might also notice that there were variations on Type List numbers that were probably made rather spontaneously. For example, consider the Type 60 with its many “K” variations to designate different body styles. Also consider how the Type 356 was initially a tube frame chassis then changed to a sheet metal chassis with the annotation 356/2 but the /2 later reused to describe different body/engine offerings. Then there were the variants on the 356 annotated as 356 SL, 356A, 356B, and 356C designations and in parallel there were the 356 T1 through 356 T7 designations. Not to mention, of course, the trademark infringement threat that caused the Type 901 to be externally re-designated as the 911.

  • Audi Tradition Presents "Space Miracles" at the Techno Classica Classic Vehicle Show in Essen
    Audi MediaInfo Tradition Communications Peter Kober Telephone: +49 841 89-39628 E -mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com Audi Tradition presents "Space Miracles" at the Techno Classica classic vehicle show in Essen It's all about the Four Rings: from the DKW Schnellaster to the Audi 100 Avant GLS Around 200,000 visitors are expected between April 10 and 14 Ingolstadt, April 4, 2019 – Station wagons from the company's history will be in the spotlight of Audi Tradition's presence at this year's Techno Classica in Essen. From Wednesday, April 10 to Sunday, April 14, the world's biggest classic vehicle show will provide a perfect stage for seven automobile treasures from Audi history. The manufacturer from Ingolstadt will be appearing at the car show under the slogan: "Space Miracle – from the Schnellaster to the Avant" and at the same time will also be celebrating 70 years since the Ingolstadt plant was founded. At the end of the Second World War, Auto Union appeared to be dead. Expropriated by the Soviet occupying power in its original base of Saxony, and removed from the Chemnitz Commercial Register in 1948, the company seemingly no longer had a future. Nevertheless, that future would continue in the US occupation zone. Re-established in 1949 with modest beginnings in former military buildings in Upper-Bavarian Ingolstadt, Auto Union GmbH developed over the course of 70 years to become AUDI AG. The first products from 1949 were the DKW Schnellaster and the DKW RT 125 W motorcycle. Both will be exhibited in Essen at the Audi stand in hall 4.

  • A Rare All-Rounder the Porsche 597 “Jagdwagen” Started Life As a Design Submitted by Porsche in Response to a Call to Tender by the German Army During the 1950S
    newsroom History Sep 11, 2018 A rare all-rounder The Porsche 597 “Jagdwagen” started life as a design submitted by Porsche in response to a call to tender by the German army during the 1950s. With its switchable all-wheel drive and trough-like monocoque bodyshell, it could withstand almost any type of terrain – both on land and water. However, only 71 units of the off-road vehicle were built. A call to tender by what would later become the Bundeswehr in 1953 prompted Porsche developers to begin work on an off-road vehicle for the military. The vehicle needed to be fast, agile and lightweight yet offer the greatest possible load capacity – as well as being suitable for off-road use, reliable and easy to service. Along with Auto Union (formerly DKW) and Goliath, a Borgward subsidiary, Porsche was one of three German manufacturers involved in the tendering process. The designers equipped the type 597 “Jagdwagen” with a modified four-cylinder flat engine from the Porsche 356, located in the rear of the vehicle. This provided some 50 hp, allowing the vehicle to demonstrate impressive driving dynamics despite its inclination towards off-road capabilities: Weighing in at around 870 kilograms and offering a top speed of up to 100 km/h, the Porsche 597 was extremely agile for a military vehicle. The first all-wheel-drive vehicle to bear the Porsche name The flat engine delivered power to the rear axle via a synchronised four-speed transmission with an additional off-road gear. Its switchable front-wheel drive made the 597 the first all-wheel-drive vehicle to bear the Porsche name.
