From a rebellious engineer in Kaiser¿era Germany to a silicon¿smart contender on the 2026 Formulä1 grid, Vorsprung traces 125¿years of Audi with the verve of a turbo spool and the precision of a CNC mill. It opens in brass¿era Zwickau, where August¿Horch coins "Audi" in Latin, and closes in carbon¿negative factories humming with solid¿state batteries. Along the way you'll witness snow¿flung quattro rallies, Bauhaus design revolutions, Dieselgate reckonings and electric¿desert triumphs at Dakar. Every chapter marries narrative drama with engineering clarity. Board¿room battles unfold beside exploded¿view breakdowns of five¿cylinder turbos; Le¿Mans night stints segue into thermodynamic deep¿dives on FSI injection. Vivid anecdotes-Michele¿Mouton spraying champagne in Sanremo, Tom¿Kristensen chasing dawn at Le¿Sarthe, Carlos¿Sainz surfing dunes in a series¿hybrid buggy-bring life to torque curves and CAD drawings. Exclusive interviews with designers, racers and sustainability chiefs reveal the thinking behind aluminium space frames, sphere concepts and Mission:Zero carbon plans. Illustrated by a curated gallery of landmark models and anchored in rigorous sourcing, Vorsprung is both a gear¿head's feast and a strategist's case study. Whether you're drawn to roaring V16 Silver Arrows, whisper¿quiet e¿trons or the algorithms steering tomorrow's robötaxis, this book shows how Audi keeps its rings shining in an era where speed, software and sustainability must coexist.
