Audi has been a leader in the automotive industry since July 16, 1909, and the company has never stopped innovating. Audi models have always shared components with the Volkswagen line of vehicles, and this benefits both companies. But the main thing that separates Audi from its competitors is the sheer driving experience that you get with an Audi vehicle.
