Audi – Quartz
.
Vehicle Overview
In 1980, the Swiss magazine Automobil Revue celebrated its 75th anniversary. Sergio Pininfarina, close friend of the director of the magazine, decides to create a specific concept for the occasion. It will be called Quartz and taken over by Audi. When Pininfarina attends the presentation of the Audi Quattro at the 1980 Geneva International Motor Show, he understands that it would be a perfect basis for his own concept. The German brand accepts help and graciously provides him with a car without a bodywork. During the project, Audi keeps an eye on the realization. Pininfarina designs a new carbon fiber body, 30 centimeters shorter than a Quattro, 90 kilograms lighter and much more aerodynamic. Inside, Pininfarina also imagines a completely new dashboard. This Quartz is fully functional and is purchased by Audi which presents it at the 1981 Geneva Motor Show.
