Escalating their battle to a whole new level, their humorous digs at each other was quite an enjoyable moment for both BMW and Audi fans!

WIth circles of light in the background, the attractive photograph attracted eyeballs on social media and that’s when Audi took the chance to take a dig at its rival.
Apparently, the illuminating ring formation behind the vehicle has a striking resemblance to Audi’s four-ring logo.
The four rings in Audi represent the pre-war Auto Union of four manufacturers: Audi Automobilwerke, Horch, DKW, and Wanderer.
In an epic tweet, Audi trolled BMW and made it a classic internet joke.

We must admit that BMW totally nailed its comeback. Seems like Audi has accepted defeat and didn’t reply.

This is not the first time the auto giants have engaged themselves in a brand war. Earlier, they had a massive tiff over billboards, which turned into a dirty, mud-slinging ad war.
