10 years of the Aluminium and Lightweight Design Centre in Neckarsulm

Audi A8, Audi A2, Lamborghini Gallardo: for the past ten years, Audi has been devising new technologies that make cars lighter, more economical and safer at its Aluminium and Lightweight Design Centre in Neckarsulm.
Audi is the only car manufacturer in the world to use aluminium for volume production of cars based on the space frame principle. All Audi models with a body made from this lightweight metal are built in Neckarsulm. The production plant of the sporty Audi A8 luxury saloon and the trailblazing compact Audi A2 is also where the brand's aluminium and lightweight design expertise is based.
