At around 153,850 cars, Audi’s worldwide deliveries in May were slightly above the figures from the same month last year (+1.2%). In addition to the upcoming model changes for the Audi Q7 and the A4, the brand’s top-selling model, the current reticence to buy in the Chinese luxury segment was particularly noticeable. The picture in the Americas is, however, very different: here sales of the four rings continued to increase sharply, up 11.1 percent to around 24,500 vehicles. The Audi TT, whose global sales doubled in the month (+96.6%), also helped drive the company’s sales. Across all models, Audi has delivered around 744,900 cars to customers since January, an increase of 4.3 percent.

“In the upcoming months we expect to see an additional boost from the new Audi Q7. It will come to European dealerships in June,” says Luca de Meo, Member of the Board of Management for Sales and Marketing at AUDI AG: “We are currently seeing a great many contrasting developments in the markets; the SUV boom is, however, a uniform global trend. Sporty off-roaders are growing more strongly than the market in all regions.”
