Audi 100 entered China that year.
Inadvertently, Audi has been attached to China for nearly twenty years. As one of the earliest brands to enter the automobile market in China, Audi's influence on the formation of China's national automobile concept and the development of automobile industry can not be ignored, and A6 is the Audi model with the closest relationship with Chinese people. Here, we briefly review the history of this model and its relationship with China.

A6 family photo, A6' s predecessor was Audi 100. Before 1994, Audi's product name sequence was Audi 80, 90, 100, 200, etc. Since the birth of1994a8, the above methods have been replaced by a series of naming methods. After that, the 80,90 was renamed A4, and the Audi 100 was called A6. The 200 was specially developed for the China market, based on C3 100, which was similar to the relationship between Yu Ling and Passat.

The first generation Audi 100 was born in 1968. The internal number is C 1, where "C" stands for C-class (medium and large) cars and "1" stands for the first generation. Its appearance marks Audi's first step towards high-end cars after World War II. This Audi 100LS four-door model was produced in 1969. Equipped with a four-cylinder 1.8-liter gasoline engine, the maximum power 100 horsepower.

The second generation Audi 100 was launched in 1977. C2 series models are equipped with a 5-cylinder gasoline engine for the first time, with a displacement of 2.2 liters and a maximum power of 136 horsepower. This is also the first car in the world that uses a 5-cylinder gasoline engine in batches.

The third generation C3 series Audi 100 should be very familiar to China people. This generation of cars appeared in 1982, and the drag coefficient was only 0.30, which created the best result at that time. 1988, Changchun faw began to produce this model; It was not until 1996 that the Audi 200V6 specially developed for China market went on the market that FAW stopped producing Audi 100.

The fourth generation Audi 100 went on sale at the end of 1990. FAW once produced this car, but the quantity was very small. 1994, the car was renamed A6. The car is equipped with 2.2, 2.4 and 2.6V6 engines, which can be seen in China.

The fifth generation A6 first appeared in public on 1997, and went offline in China at the end of 1999. The sleek shape is deeply rooted in people's hearts and has become synonymous with "official car" in China.

The sixth generation A6 was listed in 2004 and made in China in 2005. The big mouth shape has become a new symbol, and its spacious space and majestic shape have won excellent sales.

A6 and China, black A6 is very representative in China.

1988, the government of China explicitly proposed to develop the automobile industry. This year, Changchun FAW, which has laid the foundation for the new China automobile industry, was authorized by Audi to start producing Audi 100 cars.

The original Audi 100 was equipped with a 1.8-liter four-cylinder carburetor engine, which was basically the same as that used in Pu Sang. Later, some models began to be equipped with a 2.2-liter five-cylinder mechanical jet engine and an engine tachometer. At that time, the government purchased a large number of Audi 100 vehicles as official vehicles, and now we can see that many vehicles of this model are still in service.

The production of Audi 100 continued until 1996. In the same year, FAW-Volkswagen began to produce Audi 200 with a 2.4-liter V6 engine specially developed for the China market (1996, Audi began to develop models for China, which was prescient. Volkswagen Group has always had a deep understanding of the China market, and 1995' s Sang 2000 is also a good example, as well as Jetta, which was later changed to Passat B4. The appearance of the 200 series model is slightly different from that of 100, but the interior is almost the same. 1997,200 vehicles 1.8T model put into production.

Prior to this, 1993, FAW had started to produce C4 series 100 2.6E cars by SKD. The engine adopts V6 and 2-valve structure, with maximum power 140 HP.

By 1998, Audi has sold more than 654.38+million vehicles in China. During this period, FAW-Volkswagen also assembled a number of C4 series Audi 100 (Audi A6) models. What you can often see now are two models with 2.2-liter and 2.6-liter engines. The appearance of C4 series models has changed greatly, but the improvement of interior is still limited.

1999, C5 series Audi A6 was officially put into production in China. The appearance, interior and power system have changed greatly. The engine initially supplied 2.8 and 2.4, and later added 1.8 and1.8t. The sleek appearance seems to be out of date.

By the end of 2004, the domestic sales of domestic Audi A6 models had exceeded 200,000.

The C6 A6, which was put into production in 2005, will not be launched. The sales volume of C6 A6 in China has exceeded the sum of its predecessors.

By the way, in the old Audi, I was particularly impressed that the middle of the headrest was empty and the headrest was "back". . . .
