Audi delivered around 1.9 million cars in 2023. Deliveries of more than 178,000 fully electric vehicles resulted in an increase of 51 percent compared to 2022. The high demand serves as a robust foundation for a challenging year of transformation with a clear focus on electromobility: One next important step will be the world premiere of the Audi Q6 e-tron at the end of the first quarter of 2024.

“Audi is a strong brand with a clear focus on an electric future,” says Audi CEO Gernot Döllner. “The high demand for our models serves as a robust starting point for the new year. At the same time, we recognize that 2024 will be a challenging year due to increased competition and global economic uncertainties. This makes it all the more important to follow a clear plan that addresses these challenges and focuses on the profitability of our vehicles. In 2024 and 2025, we will also strengthen and rejuvenate our portfolio with numerous new models. The focus will be on our groundbreaking electric cars. We are also giving the brand a robust positioning for the coming years with an entirely new generation of combustion engine models and plug-in hybrids.”
