Home > 2026 Audi Performance Driving Experiences Debut With Something for Everyone
The latest list of Audi Performance Driving Experiences give fans the chance to hone their skills on proving grounds or iconic circuits.
Many automakers offer some sort of driving experience or performance school, designed to help owners and enthusiasts hone their skills on a race track or off-road setting. That includes Audi Performance Driving Experiences, which have long been offered in the U.S. and abroad, giving fans and owners of that particular brand a chance to not only improve their own skills, but also, push vehicles to the literal limit. Now, dates and details pertaining to the 2026 lineup of Audi Performance Driving Experiences have arrived.
The list of 2026 Audi Performance Driving Experiences is quite expansive, starting with a drift school of sorts utilizing an Audi RS 3 Sportback. Under the guidance of an experienced driver, participants will get the chance to learn how to drift safety and in a controlled manner, on a closed course. Then there’s the performance format, with three different experiences – all taking place on the handling course in Neuburg.
The performance series gives participants the chance to spend some time on that track, along with an instructor, and in a variety of performance-focused Audi models. Performance exclusive enables one to further explore the driving dynamics of various models, and one can even opt to expand it to race tracks around Europe with expert instructors on board. High performance courses take things up a notch with vehicles like the RS lineup and the R8 V10 Performance, in professional settings like Spa-Francorchamps.
For aspiring racers and those that have already completed comparable training courses, the Audi Performance Driving Experiences also include the “top performance” classes, which gives fans the chance to spend time behind the wheel of an RS3 at Neuburg an der Donau, or in an R8 at the iconic Nurburgring.
The dates for these experiences do vary, but the 2026 installment of Audi Performance Driving Experiences kicks off with a drift class on April 11, as well as a performance school in Neuburg. From there, experiences are available all the way up through October, on a monthly basis.
