All over Europe and the UK, Audi brands are one of the most in demand cars for leasing and contract hire. Audi offers a wide range of selection for Audi leasing. The common choices are the A3, A4, A6, Audi 8 and the Audi TT.

Audi 3, known as the “city’s sleek performer” can be a hatchback or a sports-back showcasing both luxury and practicality. Audi 4 offers the Saloon, Avant or the Cabriolet while Audi 6 highlights the allroad Quattro with its powerful engine and rugged suspension for an all-road performance. Audi 8, with its V6 and V8 engines, comes with the Quattro’s four-wheel drive and all-aluminum body. The elegant Audi TT, with its sleek design and power, comes available as a roadster or a coupe.

Vehicle options are offered both for Audi leasing and Audi contract hire depending on the available stocks and the preferred plan of customers. Audi leasing is both offered for individual use or for private users or for business or company use.

For private users, Audi contract hire or leasing still gives the individual a wide range of choices for the car unit, terms, payment and duration. Some companies offer the option for the customer to keep the car or return it after the lease period.

For business users, Audi leasing serves as a very practical move for business solutions. Most Audi leasing companies offer the option to choose car specifications depending on the company or individual tastes and requirements.

What are the advantages of Audi leasing and contract hires? For one, the customer is given the freedom to choose car specifications and model depending on the stock availability. Audi leasing companies are considered a one-stop shop for all motoring needs. Also, the lease provides very minimal risk to customers since most companies offer “no obligation to purchase” policies.

Another is the lease’s practicability. Some customers would want to rent cars for temporary personal or business trips and driving your own stylish car is one great solution to mobility. While most rented cars offer the usual “mass-produced and mass-renting” quality, Audi leasing provides the business man or traveller with mobility, style and elegance. All these fit the purpose of each traveller, whether for business or for pleasure.

Audi traces its origins back to 1899 and August Horch. When Horch was forced out of the company he had founded, he started a new company in 1909 called Audi which was a Latin translation of Horch (in German: ‘Listen’). From the start, the company’s policy was to build cars mainly for the luxury category.

Since 1932 the Audi emblem has been the ‘four rings’, which represent its amalgamation with DKW, Horch and Wanderer to form Auto Union AG in Chemnitz, Germany. Audi supplied a wide range of passenger vehicles during the 1930s - from motorcycles to luxury saloon cars. Volkswagen bought the company in 1964. In the 1980s, Audi dominated world rally with the Audi Quattro, and has had huge success in the Le Mans 24 Hour with its R10 prototype racer.
Audi’s progressive designs and groundbreaking technology combine to make cars which are innovative yet stylish. The current crop of production vehicles from the Audi A3 to the Audi R8 supercar has propelled Audi to record sales during the 21st century.
Audi have produced every kind of car imaginable: from executive cars such as the Audi A4 and Audi A6 to sports cars such as the Audi TT - from the Audi Q7 full size SUV to the Audi A2 super-mini and they show no signs of slowing down.

The A8 has been produced in two generations: from 1994-2003 and 2003-date. The first A8 used Audi’s D2 platform, an all-aluminium space frame to reduce weight without losing rigidity. The saloon included the A8L long-wheelbase version, adding five inches rear legroom. In 1997, six interior airbags were added, making it the first vehicle to be so equipped. The second generation was built on the D3 platform, with the main notable change being the unique single frame grille, now the signature style for the entire line of Audi automobiles.

TYPES

The current generation of A8s is available in a range of powerful diesel and petrol engine options including 2.8 V6, 3.2 V6, 4.2 V8, 3.0 TDI V6 and 4.2 litre TDI V8 with standard or long-wheelbase versions. The diesel versions all include semi-automatic Tiptronic gearboxes whilst Multitronic semi-automatic options are available for petrol engines. The 4.2 litre diesel V8 is the most powerful diesel engine Audi has ever produced in a car. It uses two turbochargers and two intercoolers, with each turbo functioning exclusively for one bank of four cylinders.
