The origins of the S badge (with red surround), is nothing to do with sport, per se. Ayrton Senna, who never drove for AUDI owned AUDI dealerships in Brazil, and he was instrumental in vast car sales within that country. Upon his death, AUDI made the decision to honour him forever by introducing an S badge to their sportier cars. S Line is merely marketing, you get slightly sportier looks, but not the full blown packages.
