The blueprint of performance design: Auto Union’s racing icons. Before there was Audi, there were four automotive brands united under Auto Union. Racing icons, like the Type C and Type D, defined automotive design. Shaped by airflow, their lightweight aluminum bodies set a new benchmark in racing. This intentional focus on performance through reduction pushed engineering to its core. With the engine moved behind the driver, they introduced a mid-engine layout years ahead of its time. A concept built for the track evolved into a mindset that still shapes how Audi approaches design today. #StriveForClarity #Audi #VorsprungDurchTechnik
