Audi F103

Automobiles

F103 is the internal designation of a family of cars that Auto Union built in West Germany from 1965 to 1972, developed from the earlier DKW F102. The change from a two-stroke to a four-stroke engine was marked by dropping the DKW name in favour of Audi, a name that had lain dormant since before the Second World War. The first car was simply called the Audi and was later renamed the Audi 72, after its nominal power in PS. The Audi 80 and Super 90 followed in 1966, the Audi 60 in 1968 and the Audi 75 in 1969, and in 1972 the series gave way to the B1 Audi 80. All used the M118 four-cylinder four-stroke engine, which Daimler-Benz had developed, mounted longitudinally and driving the front wheels.
