Aerodynamik im Automobilbau von 1945 bis heute

In the organizer's words:

After the end of the Second World War, the design of the DKW Meisterklasse and the VW Beetle was based on the original models developed before the war and the issue of air resistance became less important. It was only when fuel costs rose during the oil crisis that a rethink began and developers turned their attention to reducing fuel consumption. One effective way of doing this was to reduce drag.

Contrary to all assumptions, the modern car is becoming ever more streamlined. But is the end of what is technically feasible already in sight? Has the optimum shape already been achieved? With the second part of our aerodynamics exhibition "Form perfected?", we are deliberately leaving these questions unanswered. With a total of 21 large exhibits and numerous models, we illustrate the history of aerodynamically optimized vehicle designs right up to the modern electric car. In addition to a brief excursion into the history of motorcycles, motorsport at Audi is of course not neglected either.

Guided tours: Mon. to Fri., 14-14.45 hrs
