ABT Audi AS7

A diesel with 1200 Newton metres of torque and 560 HP (412 kW)? Even though the figures might suggest otherwise, ABT Sportsline is by no means now consorting with the manufacturers of heavy truck engines. The world's largest tuner of vehicles from the Volkswagen group has merely made it its business to take the most powerful car diesel engine of all times, built in the Audi Q7, and squeeze even more power out of it. Although the over five metres long SUV, with its standard 500 HP (368 kW) and 10

ABT AS3 handsomely refreshed

The Audi A3 has been a real success, one which re-defined the term "premium" for the compact car class. An extra portion of dynamism in the optics and the performance is offered by ABT Sportsline. The renowned vehicle turner of course also took on the facelifted version of the long-term best-seller from the Ingolstadt company - and thanks to the modified bonnet, grill, bumpers, fenders and LED light line from their product range the car has an even greater presence. It stands there as if it`s re

ABT AS5 Cabrio - Open for elegance

Sportiness and elegant design are not mutually exclusive – at least when the designers at ABT Sportsline are involved. “It is important to capture the character of the car and emphasise its uniqueness”, says Hans-Juergen Abt, the General Manager of ABT Sportsline explaining the demands which are made on the creative department. The result is a breathtakingly beautiful cabrio, which is recognisable as a real “Allgäuer” not just due to its typical 4-pipe exhaust unit. The front with the ABT grill,

"The 24 Hours is not only one of the biggest motorsport events in Germany," says Head of Audi Motorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich. "The Nürburgring-Nordschleife is considered o

ABT extravagant leather decorative inserts for the A4, A5 and Q5

With ABT vehicles the “inner values” are also of importance, even if passers-by and other drivers initially notice other things. This is because a “real ABT” can be detected by three exterior elements: firstly by its dynamic design, which also includes the typical ABT 4-pipe rear muffler, secondly the impressive sporty sound – and finally the performance of the engine, tuned in Kempten. Anyone who says that you cannot see the extra power is wrong. You can see it in every overtaking manoeuvre.

ABT Q5 – more than a SUV

With the ABT Q5 the world’s largest tuner of vehicles from the VW group continues a series which has been extremely successful both technically and optically. This is because the classy yet sporty SUV is the latest in a range of exquisite vehicles, whose success began with the Touareg and was continued by the AS7 and Tiguan. The company from southern Germany has also developed a design for the new Q5, which makes the diverse car appear as powerful, confident and very harmonic. Pure class in ever

The AS5-R is also strong: 510 dynamic horsepower (375 kW) provides considerable power in every situation. For a

The complete AERO package from ABT

When the designers of ABT Sportsline work on a vehicle, it is with the aim of giving the car its own character – and this must be recognisable from every angle. "In our design specifications it therefore states that all components, from the wheels to the exhaust unit, have to be perfectly harmonised with each other", explains Hans-Jürgen Abt. The general manager of the company from Kempten with a long tradition knows what customers expect: “A perfect vehicle, nothing more and nothing less.” As a

If you wish to experience value for money in the compact class, you won't be able to ignore the new Golf VI, gushes Hans-Jurgen Abt. The managing director of the world's biggest customiser of vehicles in the Volkswagen Group is very taken by the new version of the Wolfsburg "evergreen": "The new Golf is an outstanding basis for our designers and technicians - and they've already succeeded in creating five awe-inspiring predecessor series."

ABT Scirocco – more dynamics for the sports coupe

The very first Scirocco was the absolute star amongst compact sport coupes”, reminisces Hans-Juergen Abt. The manager of the renowned car tuner is just as fascinated with the great-grandson of the Wolfsburger trend-setter: “The Scirocco looks really dynamic and the handling is very agile.” All the more so with the Kempten modifications. They really make a storm out of a desert wind: The ABT Front spoiler makes the unmistakable face of the coupe even more distinctive. Even while stationary it is
