The Audi Cabriolet (1998), officially designated as the 8G 8G7 model, was the second generation of the open-top roadster produced by the German automaker Audi. Launched in 1995, this model marked a significant departure from its predecessor, the Audi 80 Cabriolet. It incorporated a more modern design language, borrowing elements from the contemporary Audi A4, and featured a newly developed, fully galvanized chassis for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance. The 8G Cabriolet was also the first Audi convertible to feature a fully automatic, electro-hydraulically operated fabric roof, replacing the traditional manual top of its predecessor.

Under the hood, the 1998 8G Cabriolet offered a range of petrol engines, including the 1.8-litre four-cylinder, the 2.8-litre V6, and the 2.3-litre five-cylinder turbocharged unit. The 1.8-litre engine was available in both naturally aspirated and turbocharged versions, offering a blend of fuel efficiency and performance. The larger V6 engine provided a more potent driving experience, while the turbocharged five-cylinder engine, renowned for its smooth power delivery, was available in the sporty S model. The 8G Cabriolet was available in various trim levels, ranging from the base model to the luxurious "Edition" packages, each offering a unique combination of features and enhancements. This generation of the Audi Cabriolet was praised for its refined driving experience, stylish design, and high-quality interior. It successfully established itself as a luxurious and sporty convertible option, catering to both cruising enthusiasts and performance-oriented drivers.
