How Audi Names Their Models
By using letters and numbers, Audi follows a simple format that’s easy to understand. Base models receive an “A.” Sportier vehicles are marked by an “S,” the sportiest being “RS,” or RennSport. “Q” is for the SUVs, while TT, R8 and e-tron® are their own category. Numbers 3-8 are paired with a number, and typically, the higher the number, the larger and more powerful the Audi. Trim levels are Premium, Premium Plus and Prestige, each with their own standard and available packages.
Sedan
Sleek, sophisticated, classic. The sedan body style offers fuel efficiency, maneuverability and above all, refinement. Audi sedans are either entry size, midsize or full-size flagships, each promising a luxurious ride with every start of the engine. Best for the customer who doesn’t need three rows of seating, an Audi sedan is your adaptable, compact go-to.
Cabriolet
Airy, unrestricted, head-turning. Cabriolet models are coupes that are equipped with a convertible soft- or hard-top roof that can be folded down. Drivers will love the way the wind whips around them, and when the top is folded up, unwanted noise stays away. Operated at up to 31 mph, the roofs of Cabriolet models are the fashion statement you’ve always wanted.
Coupe
Compact, agile, expressive. An Audi two-door model is called a coupe, and those seeking a daily driver with a little more personality will be drawn to this unique body style. While the entire Audi lineup is rather athletic, the coupe would be the powerful gymnast. For on-road presence that’s hard to ignore, take home an Audi coupe.
Sportback
Poised, artful, daring. The Sportback family combines the traits of sedans, coupes and hatchbacks, but they carry a unique design language all to themselves. Low rooflines, coupe-like styling and a low center of gravity mark the Sportback as a sleek companion on the road. Let your first impressions be grander than ever with an Audi Sportback at your command.
SUV
Spacious, versatile, handsome. Audi SUVs have the room to carry whatever life throws at you. Whether it’s a compact, midsize, gas, hybrid or electric-powered, the SUVs in the Audi lineup are anxious to please. It’s really the complete package — technology, performance, luxury and safety features are generous in every model.
Wagon
Confident, resilient, adventurous. For the road that seems impossible to try, take an Audi wagon to conquer it. Known for their rugged yet elegant styling, spacious rear and performance that’s marked by utility, Audi wagons can travel far in places that few will ever experience. Perfect for large families or larger-than-life hobbies, a wagon is an excellent alternative to an SUV.
Sport
Powerful, legendary, state-of-the-art. Audi sports cars can adapt to many body styles across the lineup, but that doesn’t mean that they aren’t a breed of their own. Engineered to take on a closed track or winding highway, Audi Sport models deliver raw performance, attention-seeking style and meticulous craftsmanship that no other model — and no other brand — can replicate.
You’ve probably noticed that Audi electric and hybrid models have not been given their own category. Since these e-tron® models have unique powertrains rather than different body styles, we thought to list them elsewhere.
