Auto Union
Auto Union was a joint venture of four German automobile manufacturers, established in 1932 in Zwickau, Saxony, during the Great Depression.
Auto Union after World War II
Auto Union's pre-war rival Daimler-Benz became owners for a period of time. Volkswagen then purchased Auto Union, and when they took control in 1964, the A-U name was dropped, and only the Audi brand was used to denote cars manufactured by the Ingolstadt based company. The official name was still "Audi NSU Auto-Union AG", which was simply shortened to "Audi AG" in 1985.
