 | The Audi
badge the 'Four Rings' is the emblem of one of the oldest car
manufacturers in Germany. It symbolises the 1932 merger of the four
independent motor-vehicle manufacturers: Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer.
Together with the NSU brand, which joined in 1969, these companies are
the roots of the present-day AUDI AG. After the war the Audi name -
which is Latin for "Hear!" - disappeared, but was revived in 1965,
using the four rings as a logo. Also, the name is sort of a pun on
'hoerch', German for 'hear', name of one of the founders. The
company itself is more than a century old. |
The four rings in the logo have nothing to do with the Olympic rings.
