Audi launched a new (fourth) generation Audi 100/200 model in 1991.
Based on an entirely new Volkswagen Group C4 platform, the new Audi 100 was available to the large public in both saloon/sedan and estate/wagon variants.

The 100 sedan received new engine - 2.8L SOHC V6 petrol - while also featuring a ‘quattro’ permanent all-wheel-drive option across the range. When chosen, in came with a ZF 4-speed automatic gearbox. Despite being replaced by the A6 in 1995 (it was actually more of a re-designation of this model), the 100 continued to by produced under this design lines until 1997.
