About Audi
Audi is perceived as a premium brand but has a huge range of models, ranging from superminis to supercars, along with a dizzying variety of SUVs and crossovers, many using its signature Quattro all-wheel drive tech. Most of Audi's regular mainstream models – hatchbacks, saloon, coupes and convertibles are prefixed with an A, (A3, A4 and A5, for example), while the Q prefix (Q5, Q7) is reserved for the firm's 4x4-style SUV models. Under the E-Tron branding electrification is increasingly prevalent across the Audi range, too.

S line is Audi’s sporty trim level and typically available as an option on most of its range. These cars have a more aggressive look and feel than other versions and often feature different wheels, grilles and additional S line branding inside and out. Audi S models are a level above, and typically feature uprated engines with more power than regular models, more sophisticated chassis technology, bigger brakes and stiffer suspension. The difference between S line and S is subtle visually but much more significant in the way they drive, while typical distinguishing features include unique S model badging and quad exhaust pipes. RS models are another level above in terms of performance and status. The TT is a compact and stylish model in the Audi range and is available in 2+2 coupe and soft-top Roadster bodystyles. Now in its third generation, the TT features a turbocharged 2.0-litre engine available in 40 TFSI and 45 TFSI trim levels and has the automatic S tronic gearbox as standard. It is available in both front- and all-wheel drive models. Audi was an early pioneer of four-wheel drive technology in rallying and that car’s name – Quattro – has since been adopted by all cars in its range using it. Depending on the model there are different systems available, some ‘part-time’, some permanent, but all work to the same ends of improving traction and security on slippery roads and are especially welcome in winter driving. MyAudi is an app for all Audi car drivers that provides all the information you need about your Audi, like your car’s fuel and AdBlue levels, best route to your destination and – for plug-in hybrid and electric models – the nearest charging points. It also functions as a key and alerts you when someone is trying to break into your car. You can use the MyAudi app on your smartphone, as well as in your car using Audi Connect, an in-car infotainment system that works like Siri for your car and lets you voice search information like weather updates, restaurants near you and fuel prices. TFSI stands for Turbocharged Fuel Stratified Injection and is Audi’s brand name for its latest turbocharged petrol engines. Audi’s electrified cars are sold under its E-Tron branding, the SUV of the same name now joined by the performance-oriented E-Tron GT with more models on the way. Yes you can. There are a number of Audi lease deals across a range of Audi models to suit different tastes and lifestyles. Audi is owned by the Volkswagen Group. Originally known as Auto Union, Audi was a conglomerate of four brands, as represented to this day in the four rings of its badge. By 1958, Mercedes-Benz (then, Daimler-Benz) had acquired a majority stake in Audi. This, however, only lasted till 1964, when Audi was acquired by Volkswagen. Since then, Audi has been a key member of the wider Volkswagen Group.
