This all-new Audi S1 has received a full makeover since its days of racing off the road. Now, users can buy this car for a functional day-to-day car, allowing them all the luxuries that come with it.
According to DesignBoom, "it was 30 years ago – october 4, 1984, ivory coast rally, eleventh and penultimate round in the world rally championship – that swedish driver Stig Blomqvist won the race in the AUDI sport quattro with a lead of 22 minutes." Keeping with the idea that this car is a speedy thing with a lot more torque than it leads on, designers have just made the auto safer for the road, and a whole lot more sleek than before. Now the everyday person can feel like a racer in the Audi S1.
