Quattro, the best traction ever invented?

7 May. 2020

Did you know that 1 in 3 Audi cars is Quattro?

The Quattro all-wheel drive system is considered to be the best traction ever invented, which helped the Audi brand reach its peak of success. The idea behind this invention is to optimally distribute power to all 4 wheels. The engineers' question was simple:

Why use only two wheels, when the car has 4?

Thirty years ago, in 1930, the legendary Ur-Quattro was a pioneer in the advancement of technology in motorsport.

The principle was simple, and the result innovative.

In the case of the first traction system, the power was transmitted 50% on the front axle and 50% on the rear axle. But over time, Audi engineers have developed all-wheel drive technology:

  • Permanent quattro all-wheel drive
  • Permanent quattro all-wheel drive with self-locking center differential (for vehicles with S tronic) respectively self-locking center differential and torque vectoring
  • Quattro with sport differential

Quattro effects are found in performance, accuracy, dynamics and driving pleasure. Audi has introduced Quattro technology in over 6 million models, from compact class to limousines and super sports vehicles.

The advantages of the quattro system are:

  • Improved traction
  • Better acceleration
  • Extraordinary stability in curves
  • Remarkable dynamics

Especially in winter, the Quattro all-wheel drive gives the car a behavior appropriate to road conditions. For this season, we recommend Audi Q3 Quattro 4x4 Automatik Diesel, available in our fleet. No matter how powerful the engine is, its power is transmitted first to the wheels and then to the street level.

This car offers you maximum maneuverability in case of strong brakes and sudden turns, on a wet road or covered with snow / ice. Thanks to the Quattro system, adhesion to slippery surfaces is improved. In addition to better control of the car, the safety, performance and driving dynamics factor must also be mentioned.

We are waiting for you at BDV Bestauto Rent a car Cluj, to test the advantages of the Quattro system!
