Today the company is officially Audi AG, but its previous title, Audi NSU Auto Union, reflects its very distinguished background, a marriage over many years of Audi, DKW, Horch and Wanderer (who together formed the Auto Union) and later, NSU Motorenwerke.

So the 4 rings then symbolize the union of those 4 basic car companies into Audi AG

Default Der Ring des Nibelungen...
1)Das Rheingold - Audi
2)Die Walküre - Wanderer
3)Siegfreid - Horch
4)Götterdämmerung - DKW

or maybe it's Nurburgring.

HTH! HAND!
