At the apartment of Franz Fikentscher, they discussed how to come up with a new name for the company. During this meeting, Franz's son was quietly studying Latin in a corner of the room. Several times he looked like he was on the verge of saying something but would just swallow his words and continue working, until he finally blurted out, "Father – <i><a href="/wiki/Audi_alteram_partem" title="Audi alteram partem">audiatur et altera pars</a></i>... wouldn't it be a good idea to call it <i>audi</i> instead of <i>horch</i>?".<sup id="cite_ref-13" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-13"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>13<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <i>Horch</i> in German means 'hark' or 'hear', which is <i>audi</i> in the singular imperative form of <i>audire</i>—'to listen'—in Latin.

Volkswagen dumped the DKW brand because of its associations with two-stroke technology, and having classified the model internally as the <a href="/wiki/Audi_F103" title="Audi F103">F103</a>, sold it simply as the "Audi". Later developments of the model were named after their horsepower ratings and sold as the Audi 60, 75, 80, and Super 90, selling until 1972. Initially, Volkswagen was hostile to the idea of Auto Union as a standalone entity producing its own models having acquired the company merely to boost its own production capacity through the Ingolstadt assembly plant—to the point where Volkswagen executives ordered that the Auto Union name and flags bearing the four rings were removed from the factory buildings. Then VW chief <a href="/wiki/Heinrich_Nordhoff" title="Heinrich Nordhoff">Heinz Nordhoff</a> explicitly forbade Auto Union from any further product development. Fearing that Volkswagen had no long-term ambition for the Audi brand, Auto Union engineers under the leadership of Ludwig Kraus developed the first <a href="/wiki/Audi_100" title="Audi 100">Audi 100</a> in secret, without Nordhoff's knowledge. When presented with a finished prototype, Nordhoff was so impressed he authorised the car for production, which when launched in 1968, went on to be a huge success.

Ultimately, the Audi 80 and 100 (progenitors of the <a href="/wiki/Audi_A4" title="Audi A4">A4</a> and <a href="/wiki/Audi_A6" title="Audi A6">A6</a>, respectively) became the company's biggest sellers, whilst little investment was made in the fading NSU range; the <a href="/wiki/NSU_Prinz" title="NSU Prinz">Prinz</a> models were dropped in 1973 whilst the fatally flawed <a href="/wiki/NSU_Ro80" class="mw-redirect" title="NSU Ro80">NSU Ro80</a> went out of production in 1977, spelling the effective end of the NSU brand. Production of the Audi 100 had been steadily moved from Ingolstadt to Neckarsulm as the 1970s had progressed, and by the appearance of the second generation C2 version in 1976, all production was now at the former NSU plant.

The A2 was extremely aerodynamic and was designed around a <a href="/wiki/Wind_tunnel" title="Wind tunnel">wind tunnel</a>.

The model, a <a href="/wiki/Mercedes-Benz_A-Class#W168" title="Mercedes-Benz A-Class">Mercedes-Benz A-Class</a> competitor, sold relatively well in Europe.

But while this allows for the easy adoption of all-wheel drive, it goes against the ideal 50:50 weight distribution. </p><p>In all its post <a href="/wiki/Volkswagen" title="Volkswagen">Volkswagen</a> era models, Audi has firmly refused to adopt the traditional <a href="/wiki/Rear-wheel_drive" title="Rear-wheel drive">rear-wheel drive</a> layout favored by its two archrivals <a href="/wiki/Mercedes-Benz" title="Mercedes-Benz">Mercedes-Benz</a> and <a href="/wiki/BMW" title="BMW">BMW</a>, favoring either <a href="/wiki/Front-wheel_drive" title="Front-wheel drive">front-wheel drive</a> or <a href="/wiki/Four-wheel_drive" title="Four-wheel drive">all-wheel drive</a>.

These new power units underpinned the water-cooled revival of parent company Volkswagen (in the Polo, Golf, Passat and Scirocco), whilst the many derivatives and descendants of these two basic engine designs have appeared in every generation of VW Group vehicles right up to the present day. </p><p>In the 1980s, Audi, along with Volvo, was the champion of the <a href="/wiki/Straight-five_engine" title="Straight-five engine">inline-five</a> cylinder, <a href="/wiki/Engine_displacement" title="Engine displacement">2.1/2.2 L</a> engine as a longer-lasting alternative to more traditional six-cylinder engines. This engine was used not only in production cars but also in their race cars. The 2.1 L inline five-cylinder engine was used as a base for the <a href="/wiki/Rallying" title="Rallying">rally cars</a> in the 1980s, providing well over 400 horsepower (300 kilowatts) after modification. Before 1990, there were engines produced with a displacement between 2.0 L and 2.3 L. This range of engine capacity allowed for both fuel economy and power. </p><p>For the ultra-luxury version of its <a href="/wiki/Audi_A8" title="Audi A8">Audi A8</a> fullsize luxury flagship sedan, the Audi A8L W12, Audi uses the <a href="/wiki/Volkswagen_Group" title="Volkswagen Group">Volkswagen Group</a> <a href="/wiki/List_of_Volkswagen_Group_petrol_engines#W12" title="List of Volkswagen Group petrol engines">W12 engine</a> instead of the conventional <a href="/wiki/V12_engine" title="V12 engine">V12 engine</a> favored by rivals Mercedes-Benz and BMW. The W12 engine configuration (also known as a "WR12") is created by forming two imaginary narrow-angle 15° <a href="/wiki/VR6_engine" title="VR6 engine">VR6 engines</a> at an angle of 72°, and the narrow angle of each set of cylinders allows just two <a href="/wiki/Overhead_camshaft" class="mw-redirect" title="Overhead camshaft">overhead camshafts</a> to drive each pair of banks, so just four are needed in total. The advantage of the W12 engine is its compact packaging, allowing Audi to build a 12-cylinder sedan with all-wheel drive, whereas a conventional <a href="/wiki/V12_engine" title="V12 engine">V12 engine</a> could have only a rear-wheel drive configuration as it would have no space in the engine bay for a differential and other components required to power the front wheels.

Two car concepts were developed and raced in their first season - the <a href="/wiki/Audi_R8R" title="Audi R8R">Audi R8R</a> (open-cockpit 'roadster' prototype) and the <a href="/wiki/Audi_R8C" title="Audi R8C">Audi R8C</a> (closed-cockpit 'coupé' GT-prototype). The R8R scored a credible podium on its racing debut at Le Mans and was the concept which Audi continued to develop into the 2000 season due to favourable rules for open-cockpit prototypes. </p><p>However, most of the competitors (such as BMW, Toyota, Mercedes and Nissan) retired at the end of 1999. The factory-supported <a href="/wiki/Joest_Racing" title="Joest Racing">Joest Racing</a> team won at Le Mans three times in a row with the Audi R8 (2000–2002), as well as winning every race in the <a href="/wiki/American_Le_Mans_Series" title="American Le Mans Series">American Le Mans Series</a> in its first year. Audi also sold the car to customer teams such as <a href="/wiki/Champion_Racing" title="Champion Racing">Champion Racing</a>. </p><p>In 2003, two <a href="/wiki/Bentley_Speed_8" title="Bentley Speed 8">Bentley Speed 8s</a>, with engines designed by Audi, and driven by Joest drivers <i>loaned</i> to the fellow <a href="/wiki/Volkswagen_Group" title="Volkswagen Group">Volkswagen Group</a> company, competed in the GTP class, and finished the race in the top two positions, while the Champion Racing R8 finished third overall, and first in the LMP900 class. Audi returned to the winner's podium at the 2004 race, with the top three finishers all driving R8s: Audi Sport Japan Team Goh finished first, Audi Sport UK Veloqx second, and Champion Racing third. </p><p>At the <a href="/wiki/2005_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="2005 24 Hours of Le Mans">2005 24 Hours of Le Mans</a>, Champion Racing entered two R8s, along with an R8 from the Audi PlayStation Team <a href="/wiki/Oreca" title="Oreca">Oreca</a>. The R8s (which were built to old LMP900 regulations) received a narrower air inlet restrictor, reducing power, and an additional 50 kg (110 lb) of weight compared to the newer LMP1 chassis. On average, the R8s were about 2–3 seconds off pace compared to the <a href="/wiki/Pescarolo_Sport" title="Pescarolo Sport">Pescarolo</a>–<a href="/wiki/Judd_(engine)" title="Judd (engine)">Judd</a>. But with a team of excellent drivers and experience, both Champion R8s were able to take first and third, while the Oreca team took fourth. The Champion team was also the first American team to win Le Mans since the Gulf Ford GTs in 1967. This also ends the long era of the R8; however, its replacement for 2006, called the <a href="/wiki/Audi_R10_TDI" title="Audi R10 TDI">Audi R10 TDI</a>, was unveiled on 13 December 2005. </p><p>The R10 <a href="/wiki/Turbocharged_Direct_Injection" class="mw-redirect" title="Turbocharged Direct Injection">TDI</a> employed many new and innovative features, the most notable being the <a href="/wiki/Twin-turbo" title="Twin-turbo">twin-turbocharged</a> <a href="/wiki/Direct_fuel_injection" class="mw-redirect" title="Direct fuel injection">direct injection</a> <a href="/wiki/Diesel_engine" title="Diesel engine">diesel engine</a>.

Audi had a win in the first diesel sports car at 12 Hours of Sebring (the car was developed with a Diesel engine due to ACO regulations that favor diesel engines). As well as winning the <a href="/wiki/24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="24 Hours of Le Mans">24 Hours of Le Mans</a> in 2006, the R10 TDI beat the <a href="/wiki/Peugeot_908_HDi_FAP" title="Peugeot 908 HDi FAP">Peugeot 908 HDi FAP</a> in <a href="/wiki/2007_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="2007 24 Hours of Le Mans">2007</a>, and in <a href="/wiki/2008_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="2008 24 Hours of Le Mans">2008</a>, (however Peugeot won the 24h in 2009) with a podium clean-sweep (all four 908 entries retired) while breaking a distance record (set by the <a href="/wiki/Porsche_917" title="Porsche 917">Porsche 917</a>K of <a href="/wiki/Martini_Racing" title="Martini Racing">Martini Racing</a> in <a href="/wiki/1971_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="1971 24 Hours of Le Mans">1971</a>), in <a href="/wiki/2010_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="2010 24 Hours of Le Mans">2010</a> with the <a href="/wiki/Audi_R15_TDI" title="Audi R15 TDI">R15 TDI Plus</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-95" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-95"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>95<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Audi's sports car racing success would continue with the <a href="/wiki/Audi_R18" title="Audi R18">Audi R18</a>'s victory at the <a href="/wiki/2011_24_Hours_of_Le_Mans" title="2011 24 Hours of Le Mans">2011 24 Hours of Le Mans</a>. <a href="/wiki/Audi_Sport_Team_Joest" class="mw-redirect" title="Audi Sport Team Joest">Audi Sport Team Joest</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Beno%C3%AEt_Tr%C3%A9luyer" title="Benoît Tréluyer">Benoît Tréluyer</a> earned Audi their first <a href="/wiki/Pole_position" title="Pole position">pole position</a> in five years while the team's sister car locked out the front row.<sup id="cite_ref-AFP_Audi_Front_Row_96-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-AFP_Audi_Front_Row-96"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>96<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Early accidents eliminated two of Audi's three entries, but the sole remaining <a href="/wiki/Audi_R18_TDI" class="mw-redirect" title="Audi R18 TDI">Audi R18 TDI</a> of Tréluyer, <a href="/wiki/Marcel_F%C3%A4ssler_(racing_driver)" title="Marcel Fässler (racing driver)">Marcel Fässler</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_Lotterer" title="André Lotterer">André Lotterer</a> held off the trio of <a href="/wiki/Peugeot_908" title="Peugeot 908">Peugeot 908s</a> to claim victory by a margin of 13.8 seconds. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Results">Results</h4></div> <table class="wikitable" style="margin:0.5em;

The Audi Vertical Run is where users can access the mini-game Vertical Run, a futuristic mini-game featuring Audi's e-tron concept. Players collect energy and race for the highest possible speeds and the fastest players earn a place in the Audi apartments located in a large tower in the centre of the Audi Space. In both the Home Terminal and Vertical Run spaces, there are teleports where users can teleport back and forth between the two spaces. Audi had stated that additional content would be added in 2010.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Dates_and_numbers#Chronological_items" title="Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers"><span title="The date of the event predicted near this tag has passed.
