Audi won half the trophies awarded on October 21st 2020 at the “Autonis” Awards ceremony in Germany. In the readers’ choice by auto motor and sport, the premium brand took home the coveted award in five of ten categories with models from many segments. The magazine honors the best new design features with the awards each year.
“Each of these models is part of the Audi family, yet has its own character,” said Head of Design Marc Lichte, who accepted the five trophies on behalf of the entire design team. “At Audi, design is the number 1 reason for buying. That is just one reason why it is so extremely important to us as a premium brand that the design of our models not only appeals to us, but also meets the tastes of our customers. You have once again given us an important confirmation of this with the ‘Autonis’.”
Robust and innovative Audi Q3 Sportback
The Audi Q3 Sportback recently launched by Audi Vietnam won auto motor and sport’s Autonis in the “Compact SUV” category. 24.4 percent of the participating readers cast their vote for the Audi Q3 Sportback. A distinguishing feature of the SUV coupé is the low roofline, which makes the model appear significantly longer than its sister model, the Q3. In addition, the Q3 Sportback is almost three centimeters flatter and thus has a more muscular appearance. The Audi Q3 Sportback had already won “Best Car Award 2020” from the “auto motor und sport” readers’ choice award in “compact SUVs/cross-country vehicles” category.
The Audi A1 citycarver with its robust, off-road look claimed victory in the “Small Car” category with 33 percent of the vote. The Autonis winner in the “Compact Car” category was the new Audi A3 with 19.6 percent of the vote. The Audi A5 won Autonis in the “Mid-Size” category with 36.3 percent of the vote. The Audi RS 6 Avant claimed victory in the “Full-Size” category with 22.6 percent of the vote.
