Audi 80 (B2)<\/h1>\n
\n
\n
\n
\n

The hugely successful 1972 Audi 80, codenamed B1, was replaced in 1978 by a larger model that took it more decisively into the premium small saloon class.\u00a0The B2-generation Audi 80 (above) bore a closer visual link to the bigger Audi 100 and was finished to a far higher standard, both inside and out. A wider range of engines was offered and for the first time, quattro four-wheel drive was an option.<\/p>\n

Details<\/h2>\n
Audi presented a redesigned 80 based the B2 platform (Typ\u00a081) in September 1978 and deliveries of the four door saloon\/sedan began a few weeks later in Europe. Deliveries of the fuel injected GLE and two door bodied cars began early in 1979. The redesigned car was first seen in North America in 1979 (as a 1980 model). Audi continued to use the 80 nameplate in Europe, but badged their\u00a0Typ\u00a081 as the\u00a0Audi 4000\u00a0in North America. The body of the B2 Audi 80 was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro. No Avant variant was available, as the Volkswagen Passat filled that role.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In Europe, the 80 was the standard model, while after a 1984 facelift the Audi 90 was launched as a larger-engined version of the 80; with more options, and, aside from the 70 PS (51 kW; 69 bhp), four-cylinder 1.6l turbodiesel (TD) engine which was also available for the 80, two five-cylinder in-line petrol engines \u2014 a 2.0 with 115 PS (85 kW; 113 bhp) and a 2.2 with 136 PS (100 kW; 134 bhp) which was later modified into a 2.3. The 2.2 was available with a catalytic converter and power ratings of 115 PS (85 kW; 113 bhp) for front-drive and 120 PS (88 kW; 118 bhp) for quattro models. European models had two headlamp casings, while North American models generally had quad headlamps.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The\u00a0Audi 5+5\u00a0was launched on to the American market in October 1981. The 5+5 was essentially an 80 B2 two-door saloon with the 2,144 cc five-cylinder engine and the 5 speed transmission, the precursor to what would become the Audi 90.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
In 1983, the 80 Sport was introduced in the UK, based on the GTE. It came with quattro-style Ronal alloys, rubber rear spoiler, deep chin spoiler, striped charcoal Recaro interior, and optional body graphics including full-length “Audi Sport” stripes. A special commemorative-edition version, the Audi 4000CS quattro, was made for the 1985, 1986, and 1987 model years.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Mid-1984, for the 1985 model year, Audi gave the B2 a subtle facelift with tail lights resembling the ones of the Typ 44 Audi 100, and different front and rear bumpers and headlights and an updated interior. In Europe, engines with catalytic converter emissions controls were made available for the first time.<\/div>\n
The B2 platform proved to be both quite versatile and quite profitable; many components were shared to or borrowed from the Audi Coup\u00e9, Audi Quattro and Audi Sport Quattro, which in the process helped to cement the company into the public eye after their quattro permanent four-wheel drive system proved useful in various forms of racing.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The saloons were offered until late 1986 in Europe and 1987 abroad, and the B2-based Audi Coup\u00e9 lasted through to 1988 (as an early 1989 model) before being changed. The Coup\u00e9 shared many components, and its basic body shape, with the original Audi Quattro.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
