Brought by Audi Tradition at the 2022 Goodwood Festival of Speed, the Audi V8 quattro DTM is one of those cars which at first glance they hardly make you believe that you are in front of a winning car, especially considering which its direct rivals were: BMW M3 E30 and Mercedes 190E.

When Audi announced that it would compete in the DTM in 1990, anyone expected to see someone using a big luxury sedan in the German championship. As turbo engines were banned from 1990, it wasn't possible for Audi to rely on their proven turbocharged five-cylinder engine and using the Audi 90 quattro as a good starting base for the DTM car.

The car was based on Audi's range-topping V8 Quattro model, introduced in 1988 and featuring an all-aluminium 3.6-litre V8 engine producing around 250hp. With some relatively little devlopment and minor tweaks, the car's output was increased up to 420 hp, reaching around 480 hp at 9,500 rpm by the end of its career in 1992. Bolted to a six-speed gearbox, it was mounted in a stripped down shell of the road car, reinforced by a roll-cage. A key component was Audi's proprietary 'quattro' all-wheel drive system.

At the start of the season only one vehicle was used, driven by Hans-Joachim Stuck, who managed to win the championship at the very last race of the season. The car you see in this video is the car in 1990-specs used by Stuck during that season.
