What is the relation between Bentley, Audi, and VW?

I know VW bought Bentley, but do they also own Audi?? I was driving my new W12 A8, and i thought VW and Bentley were the only companies that used W12 engines. And while driving, the cars are almost identical (the Audi A8 and Bentley Continental Flying Spur) Whats the scoop?!?!What is the relation between Bentley, Audi, and VW?Audi is owned by VW and has been for nearly 40 years. They bought Bentley about 5 years ago, as well as Lamborghini, Skoda, and Seat. They also bought Porsche shortly after Audi and now only own 20% of it.

They also bought Bugatti right before the Veyron debuted for production.



Also, Audi's B9 (not a model name) platform that they are using for the 2009 Audi A4 is used on the VW Passat and shortened for the Jetta.



The Audi A6 model is used for the Q7 which shares it's platform with the VW Toureag and the Porsche Cayenne.



The Audi A8 is the Phaeton and the Phaeton was discontinued at the end of 2006. The A8L platform is used for the Bentley Continental Flying Spur. The A8 W12, Phaeton and Toureag W12, and the Bentley Continental models use the Audi and Volkswagen co-produced W12 engine. W12 is a trademark of Volkswagen AG and its affiliates Audi AG.



The Audi S6's 450 HP V10 engine is a tuned down version of Lamborghini's Gallardo SE engine.What is the relation between Bentley, Audi, and VW?
