The Meaning Behind A Famous Symbol: The Audi logo is one of the most recognizable symbols in the automotive world. Its four connected rings appear simple, but they represent an important moment in car manufacturing history. Each ring stands for a different company that came together during a difficult economic period. Understanding this logo helps explain how Audi became a major global brand.

The Forgotten Era Of Electric Vehicles: Most people think electric cars are a modern invention, but they actually dominated American roads over a century ago. In the early 1900s, electric vehicles outsold their gasoline-powered competitors by a wide margin.  The 1899 US census recorded more electric vehicles than gasoline cars, with electricity powering 38 percent of all automobiles by 1900. Steam-powered cars held 40 percent of the market, while gasoline vehicles trailed behind at just 22 percent.
