2 prizes for Audi in Auto Bild Sports Cars of the Year vote

MANILA, Philippines–Audi claimed two wins in the reader voting for Auto Bild Sports. The brand with the four rings won over voters with the power of Audi S1 and the Audi RS 4 Avant, vehicles equipped with quattro all-wheel drive which claimed first place in their class.

Readers of the magazine “Auto Bild Sportscars” voted for their favorites among production and tuning cars once again this year.

A total of 143 cars were nominated in 17 categories. The Audi S1 won the “Compact Cars, Production Models” category with 51 percent of the vote.

The Audi RS 4 Avant took first place in the category “Station Wagons, Production Models” with 49 percent of the votes.

The Audi S1 is the top model of the A1 model series. Its 2-liter TFSI develops 231 horsepower and produces 370 Newton-meters of torque; the quattro permanent all-wheel drive and the extensively revamped suspension put the power effortlessly down onto the road.

The third-generation RS 4 Avant combines performance with a high level of everyday utility. Its 4.2-liter V8 produces a brawny 450 HP. Like every RS model from Audi, the RS 4 Avant comes standard with quattro permanent all-wheel drive.

Meanwhile, the award ceremony for the readers’ choice Sports Cars of the Year will be featured as part of the Essen Motor Show.
