Birth of a Legend (1966‑1972)

The first‑generation Audi 80, known as the B1, was manufactured between 1966 and 1972. This period introduced the initial Audi 80 models that would later span four generations from 1966 to 1996.

Styling Evolution Within the B1

During its production run, the Audi 80 B1 received several updates, including revised grilles and trim changes. These modest redesigns kept the model fresh throughout its early years.

From B1 to B2 and Beyond

Audi ceased production of the first‑generation 80 (called the Fox in the USA) in 1978, shifting focus to the B2 generation. The B1’s legacy continued as part of a four‑generation line that eventually gave way to the Audi A4 in the mid‑1990s.
