Giant Audi TT Sculpture
In celebration of Audi's centenary, a giant Audi TT was unveiled last Friday in Ingolstadt by Dr. Werner Widuckel, Member of the Board of Management for Human Resources at Audi AG, and Mayor of Ingolstadt Dr. Alfred Lehmann. The giant TT is composed of glass-fiber laminate and Neopor foam and features 150 square meters of painted surface. The structure, already shown in Berlin, Beijing, Honk Kong and Munich, is 10.2 meters long, 4.5 meters wide, 3.25 meters high, weighing about 10 tons.
We're delighted that this car has found a new home in this prominent and highly frequented traffic junction in Ingolstadt, Widuckel said at the official presentation of the sculpture. From now on, the sculpture will both adorn the center of the Audi roundabout and serve as a symbol of the company's strong ties with the city and region. First shown at the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin in 2006, the sculpture was originally produced for the Germany - Land of Ideas initiative.
The TT sculpture will be a true landmark for all of the drivers coming from Neuburg and Eichstatt. It gives the entrance to our city a modern face, said Mayor Lehmann, who sees the new Audi roundabout as a symbol of the city.
