By year-end, Audi handed over around 1,741,100 cars to customers, 10.5 per cent more than in 2013. The company once again accelerated its growth pace and achieved around 165,600 additional customers and the second-highest volume increase in its history.
The coveted SUV models (+15.8 per cent) and the A3 family available worldwide for the first time in 2014 (+53.2 per cent) contributed primarily to the strong sales total. In December, Audi continued to post double-digit growth and concluded the year with sales up 14.7 per cent to around 150,000 units for the month. In the Middle East, a record high of 11,130 sales were achieved for Audi in the region.
“The year 2014 is impressive evidence of the Audi brand’s strength,” said Rupert Stadler, chairman of the board of management of AUDI AG.
In the Middle East, the A3 Sedan represented nine per cent of all sales in its first year and sales of the Q3 increased by 12 per cent.
