Responsibility

Living up to our responsibilities is a principle that is firmly anchored in Audi strategy. Alongside commercial success and international competitiveness, our responsibility toward company employees and society as a whole is a key consideration, as is protecting the environment and conserving resources. And what is true in the details – our catalogues are printed on FSC-certified paper – also holds in general: Audi develops cars that are not only sporty and emotive but also ever more efficient. In the long run, Audi wants its products

the world of Audi.

to allow CO₂-neutral mobility. Seeing to it that production in Audi plants gradually becomes CO₂-neutral is another aspect of our comprehensive approach. Audi is also committed to society – particularly in the fields of education, technology and social projects. At Audi, sustainability is closely linked with how we see the future: the Audi Urban Future Initiative sees Audi working with international experts to get to the root of future urban challenges and trends in mobility.

The fascination of Audi

Team spirit

Motorsport is a driving force behind the brand. For years Audi has been among the champions in various racing series, for instance the 24 Hours of Le Mans or the DTM German Touring Car Masters. The values that are crucial in many different areas of sport are also central ones for Audi: precision, passion and technology. No coincidence then that Audi has been sponsoring sporting events for

many years. In the world of winter sports, for example, Audi has been the main sponsor of the German Ski Association (DSV) for almost three decades and has also partnered 14 other national alpine teams. In football, we support national and international teams. And Audi is also a partner for the German Olympic Sports Confederation.

>>> Transmission expertise

Improved efficiency thanks to improved transmission ratios. A high torque output makes longer ratios possible, especially in higher gears. For powerful torque in the low engine speed range which reduces consumption – yet has virtually no impact on driving performance and sportiness.

>>> Lightweight expertise

Less weight. More savings, power and endurance. Audi lightweight technology. What started with lightweight body construction has now made its way into nearly all areas, combining innovative materials such as aluminium and magnesium, intelligent design principles and resource-saving manufacturing processes into an overall concept.

Building an Audi is an extremely complicated business. And yet a simple principle applies for all models: all vehicle components interlock precisely in order to produce emission-reducing synergies. What started in accordance with this principle at the end of the 1980s with Audi lightweight construction and the revolutionary Audi Space Frame (ASF®) is now known as the reversal of the weight spiral: every lightweight component has an impact on other components, which can in turn be made smaller. In this way, existing forms and materials are continuously being improved with regard to their functionality, the lowest possible weight and their production process. With the goal of building vehicles that are even more efficient and make more sparing use of resources. At the same time, more and more efficiency technologies are being built into an Audi. These include recuperation and the start-stop system. Not to mention progressive, efficient high-tech engines. For greater driving dynamics, high compression, more efficient combustion and lower CO₂ emissions. All this is known as Audi ultra. Today and in the future – towards CO₂-reduced mobility.

>>> Engine expertise

Powerfully and efficiently driven. By Audi ultra with efficiency technologies in the engine sector. Such as Audi cylinder on demand and the Audi valvelift system, which both reduce the amount of energy consumed by the engine, or clean diesel technology, which can help to reduce emissions.

Audi g-tron

Audi g-tron offers a carefree,

cost-efficient way to “hit the gas”. With Compressed Natural Gas, CNG for short, less CO₂ is produced.

The Audi A3 Sportback g-tron is the first Audi standard production

model to be equipped with pioneering TFSI technology with

CNG modification. Thus achieving a range of up to 400 kilometres

when driving purely on natural gas.

Combined values using the ECE standard for the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron: consumption: 1.5 l/100 km; CO₂ emissions: 35 g/km. More detailed information about the Audi A3 Sportback e-tron can be found in the A3 Sportback e-tron catalogue. For information on when this feature will be available, please contact your Audi partner. Combined values using the ECE standard for the Audi A3 Sportback g-tron: consumption: 3.3–3.2 kg CNG/100 km; CO₂ emissions: 92–88 g/km. More detailed information about the Audi A3 Sportback g-tron can be found in the A3 Sportback catalogue.

Changes the world.

Not everyday life.

Intelligent performance

Maximum power. Put to maximum use.

Every movement originates from something. Something that sets it off, an idea. The engine in your Audi can also be traced back to an initial spark of inspiration: higher power with lower fuel consumption. These apparently conflicting aims are reconciled in revolutionary TFSI drive

technology.

TFSI®

Audi cylinder on demand

Even cylinder heads can be intelligent, as Audi cylinder on demand proves. Cylinders two and three of the TFSI engine’s four cylinders automatically shut down in the partial-load range. This helps to lower fuel consumption at the same time as reducing emissions. Without the switchover even being noticed or impairing the driving dynamics.

The fuel consumption and CO₂ emission figures as well as the efficiency classes can be found from page94 onwards.

Audi TFSI engines attain a particularly high compression rate. The result: outstanding efficiency combined with optimum performance. Substituting supercharging for cubic capacity has the effect of considerably reducing engine size and weight – while performance remains as impressively dynamic as ever. For power delivery that will win you over from the word go.

Your Audi is painted not just once.

But four times.

When you choose a paint colour, choose one that best reflects your own personality. But whichever colour you opt for, you can count on the outstanding quality of our painting process. Though no thicker than a human hair, the layer of paint on an Audi is actually made up of four different coats. So not only do you look radiant in your Audi, the car is also optimally protected from environmental influences and wear. For its entire lifetime.

Quality you can see and feel: the optional acoustic hood captivates with its high-quality covers in different colours and a hood compartment with circumferential aluminium bar. It can be opened and closed at speeds up to 50 km/h and its fine interior materials always ensure a pleasantly quiet ride as well as excellent heat insulation.

Explanatory notes

¹ The figure given was calculated using the specified measuring procedure (current version of Directive

80/1269/EEC).

² For Ambition: cast aluminium wheels, size 7.5 J x 17 with 225/45 R 17 tyres.

For Ambiente: cast aluminium wheels, size 7 J x 16 with 205/55 R 16 tyres.

³ You will find specifications on the technical characteristics of tyres in the adjacent table.

⁴ Unladen vehicle weight includes driver (68 kg), luggage (7 kg) and fuel tank 90 % full, calculated in accordance

with the current version of EC Directive 92/21/EEC. Optional equipment may increase the car’s unladen weight and drag coefficient, whereupon the possible payload limit and the top speed will be reduced accordingly.

⁵ The engine’s power output always decreases with increasing altitude. At 1,000 m above sea level, and for every

additional 1,000 m, deduct 10 % from the weight of the outfit (trailer load limit + gross weight of the towing vehicle). Figure for trailer load limit applies to factory-fitted trailer towing hitch. If using the vehicle with a trailer towing hitch for commercial purposes, a digital tachograph may be required under certain conditions.

⁶ A vehicle’s fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions do not just depend on how efficiently the vehicle uses the fuel,

but are also influenced by driving behaviour and other non-technical factors. CO₂ is the greenhouse gas primarily responsible for global warming.

⁷ Regulated.

⁸ We recommend using sulphur-free super unleaded RON 95 fuel complying with DIN EN 228. If this is not

available, use sulphur-free regular unleaded RON 91 fuel complying with DIN EN 228; power output will be slightly reduced. Unleaded RON 95 fuel with a maximum ethanol content of 10 % (E10) can generally be used. Fuel consumption details refer to operation with RON 95 fuel complying with 692/2008/EC.

⁹ NA

¹⁰ We recommend using sulphur-free super plus unleaded RON 98 fuel complying with DIN EN 228.If this is not

available, use sulphur-free super unleaded RON 95 fuel complying with DIN EN 228; power output will be slightly reduced. Unleaded RON 95 fuel with a maximum ethanol content of 10 % (E10) can generally be used. Fuel consumption details refer to operation with RON 95 fuel complying with 692/2008/EC.

¹¹ The figures given were calculated using the specified measuring procedures. The figures do not refer to one

individual vehicle and do not form part of any offer, but rather should be used purely for purposes of comparison between the different vehicle models.

¹² Only available for the Attraction equipment line.

Important note

Special information about the wheels: wheels with gloss turned finish as well as

polished or partly polished aluminium wheels should not be used in wintry road conditions. For manufacturing reasons, these wheel surfaces do not have sufficient corrosion protection for such use and they can be damaged permanently by road salt or similar.

The Audi experience

The fascination of Audi can be experienced in many different ways. Audi City in London, for example, gives you digital access to all models at their actual size and in real time. And of course it is always worth visiting one of the major motor shows. This is where Audi always presents its new models and invites you to take a look at how the future is being shaped with “Vorsprung durch Technik”. Anyone interested in seeing how Audi is already putting this into practice will find fascinating insight in the “Vorsprung durch Technik” online special at www.audi-me.com. But a look back can also be rewarding: at the Audi museum mobile in Ingolstadt, history and high-tech go hand in hand. A total of 130 historic exhibits and state-of-the-art forms of presentation

make for a thrilling symbiosis. Plus, Audi driving experience allows you to live the excitement and countless possibilities of current Audi models. Here, pure driving enjoyment is combined with valuable learning effects. This is ensured by a team of specially trained and highly qualified instructors who provide practical tips to help you optimise your driving skills. All this can now also be enjoyed at the recently opened Audi driving experience center in Neuburg, near Ingolstadt. Facilities here include a that features challenging combinations of bends, a 30,000 m² dynamic driving area and an offroad section where Q models can be put through their paces.
