1991 Audi 100 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Audi has always prided itself on standing for German excellence and innovative automotive techniques. The Audi 100 was the first commercial sedan to introduce the quattro system of distributing power over all four wheels, thereby ensuring better traction and stability, making the Audi not only synonymous with luxury, but safety as well.

The 1991 Audi 100 continued this tradition of offering luxurious comfort with a sturdy, solid, well-balanced driving experience. Available in either a 4-speed automatic base sedan or 5-speed manual quattro AWD, the Audi 100 sported a 2.3-liter, 5-cylinder, 130-hp engine that was surprisingly fast for such a big and heavy car. Many features that would be extras in comparably-sized cars were standard in the Audi 100, including cruise control, power heated mirrors, a power sunroof, power windows and locks, ABS brakes, and a security system.

No one buys an Audi for its affordability, and when it comes time for repairs, you should be prepared to spend a lot for parts. So say owners who have gone through the painful experience. This and a sluggish acceleration which takes a while to kick in are the major complaints of 1991 Audi 100 owners. On a positive note, drivers love the way the Audi 100 handles and that, despite its size and engine power, it is so quiet. A large comfortable interior with plenty of standard luxuries make long car trips enjoyable. And the sturdiness of the quattro all-wheel drive goes through snow and ice like a knife through butter.
