A3, A6 and A8 Winners in Auto Motor und Sport

Audi was victorious three times in the “auto motor und sport” readers’ poll. Readers of Germany’s popular car magazine voted the A3, A6 and A8 into first place, crowning them with “Best Cars” titles for 2006. This continues Audi’s history of success in the most important readers’ poll in the automotive industry.

The A8, the sporty luxury saloon model, represents the benchmark in the luxury class for ams readers for the fourth consecutive year, despite strong competition. The A8 was highly rated by readers for its innovative technology such as the aluminium space frame, its outstanding driving characteristics, its high-quality appearance that sets standards and its striking design.

The winner in the executive class, the Audi A6, was the market leader in Germany last year in its class. The elegant and sporty A6 is available as both a saloon and an Avant.

The Audi A3 was voted top of the compact class. Audi demonstrates with the A3 how it is possible to perfectly unite premium standards with compact dimensions in a smaller vehicle class. The A3 is available in three-door and Sportback versions.

Audi’s sporty orientation, superb standards of quality, trendsetting design and proverbial “Vorsprung durch Technik” received an emphatically positive verdict from the readers of ams.

Fourtitude

BS list, imo!!

1er is better than A3, 5er is better than A6 and 7er and A8 are about the same from my point of view.

It's all about the driving experience, and BMW still scores best in that regard

Although BMW might offer good driving experience there are other important factor when awardin a car with such a price. Quality, price, space, design, engine and options are just some of the thing that were taken into concideration..

I'm glad Porsche owned the "Sportwagen G" category.

the list is based on the readers. 3er won its category, if not it would be a disgrace

Gladely, the German readers/car owners are not as mark-biased as you, and see it from another point of view.

Good job for Audi. I'd say that's just right with them losing in the 3 series vs. A4 and winning the other 3. They lost to MB for SUV, which I can't comment on because I haven't seen the Q7.
It seems the Germans have a real soft spot for the Porsche Carrera.

 

[Mr. Chigga_Chan]

Its obvious that this POLL proves that Audi is the best manufacturer of Luxury vehicles...

Good job Audi....
