Introduction to the Model and the Original
The model car being showcased here is the Audi Sport quattro. This model was manufactured by Minichamps Audi Collection in a scale of 1/43. The original vehicle was produced in the early 1980s and quickly became a legend in rally sports. The Audi Sport quattro generation was built from 1984 to 1985 and was the successor to the Audi Quattro. Engineers and designers like Walter Treser, who played a crucial role in its development, brought this vehicle to life.
The technical specifications of the original are remarkable. Powered by a 2.1-liter inline-five-cylinder turbocharged engine, the Audi Sport quattro produced an impressive 306 horsepower. Its permanent all-wheel-drive technology made this vehicle an icon on and off the road. The engine block was made of an aluminum alloy, making the vehicle lighter and thus more agile. The vehicle featured a highly sporty design with distinctive lines and ventilation scoops on the hood and fenders.
Technical Specifications and Historical Events
The Audi Sport quattro was equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission and could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 4.8 seconds. This made the vehicle extremely coveted among car enthusiasts and collectors. The top speed was around 250 km/h (155 mph). Some significant events in the year 1984, when this classic was first built, include the release of Michael Jackson's "Thriller" and the founding of Facebook, which later became popular. These examples serve to illustrate the age of the vehicle and its historical context.
