The 1991 IAA served as the premiere platform for the Audi quattro Spyder. Up to that point, the brand from Ingolstadt was known primarily for well-behaved sedans, forays into the world of rallying in the 1980s and upcoming successes in the DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Meisterschaft). But no one expected a thoroughbred sports car from them. In fact, however, Audi was already planning to put this concept car into production. The trade show appearance in Frankfurt was to be used as an opinion poll for this purpose. The quattro Spyder was accordingly close to a possible series production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Series production opportunities firmly planned<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Other concept cars, such as the Mercedes-Benz F 100 or C112, already made their status clear through various details. Reversing cameras, wildly shaped exterior mirrors or joysticks in the interior failed at the time due to approval regulations. Audi therefore ensured that the prototype, which was was painted in Fidji Orange, largely complied with all applicable specifications in the most important markets. For the first time, the Ingolstadt-based company used a body made entirely of aluminium. Above the passengers’ heads, the glass roof could be completely removed and attached to the engine cover. Audi received various pre-orders during and shortly after the motor show.<\/p>\n\n\n
