Welcome to the exhilarating world where innovation meets passion, and classic craftsmanship converges with cutting-edge technology. In the spotlight today is the extraordinary Audi Avus, a concept sports car that left an indelible mark on automotive history. Buckle up as we embark on a riveting journey through the legacy, design, and unique features of the 7th concept car in our top 17 series. Unveiling a Masterpiece: The Audi Avus  Picture this: Tokyo, 1991. The air is electric at the Tokyo Motor Show as Audi takes the stage to unveil the Avus. A mid-engined sports car boasting a W12 engine, it was a vision of automotive magnificence.

The Audi e-bike Wörthersee is a high-performance sports machine for sporty people. Its design reflects the concentrated dynamism of the brand, with CFRP playing a major role in its ultra-lightweight design principle. The changed role that the car will adopt in the mobility of tomorrow is creating space in the world’s major cities for new means of transport – for lean, lightweight and efficient vehicles with two, three or four wheels, for e-pedelecs, e-skateboards, e-trikes or even e-quads. Audi designers are picking up on this trend and transferring it into the brand’s progressive design language. One example of this is the Audi e-bike Wörthersee, a study from spring 2012 conceived as a high-performance sports machine. In developing it, designers looked to the principles of motorsport – the design of the Audi e-bike is focused very much on technology, coming over as extremely precise, extremely functional and extremely emotional.
