Audi NSU RO 80 Engines and Transmissions

The Audi NSU RO 80 engine range is represented here by the 1.0 MT, a gasoline sedan with a manual gearbox and front-wheel drive. That small displacement figure reflects how rotary chamber volume is measured, so expect smoothness and free revving rather than low-speed muscle. Front drive keeps the drivetrain compact and traction predictable.
