The company is headquartered in Ingolstadt, Germany, and has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Volkswagen AG since 1966, following a phased purchase of its predecessor, Auto Union, from its former owner, Daimler-Benz.

The company name is based on the surname of the founder August Horch, meaning listen — which, when translated into Latin, becomes Audi.
