Bavaria, Germany. Audi-branded vehicles are produced in nine production
facilities worldwide.

Auto Union, from Daimler-Benz.Volkswagen relaunched the Audi brand
with the 1965 introduction of the Audi F103 series.
The company name is based on the surname of the founder, August Horch.

that banded together to create Audi's predecessor company, Auto Union.

"Truth in Engineering". Audi is part of the "German Big 3" luxury automakers,
