Audi AG today
Audi plant in Aurangabad, India
Audi's sales grew strongly in the 2000s, with deliveries to customers
increasing from 653,000 in 2000 to 1,003,000 in 2008. The largest sales
increases came from Eastern Europe (+19.3%), Africa (+17.2%) and the
Middle East (+58.5%). China in particular has become a key market,
representing 108,000 out of 705,000 cars delivered in the first three
quarters of 2009. One factor for its popularity in China is that Audis
have become the car of choice for purchase by the Chinese government for
officials, and purchases by the government are responsible for 20% of
its sales in China.
As of late 2009, Audi's operating profit of €1.17-billion
($1.85-billion) made it the biggest contributor to parent Volkswagen
Group's nine-month operating profit of €1.5-billion, while the other
marques in Group such as Bentley and Seat had suffered considerable
losses.
Audi has 7 manufacturing plants around the world: Ingolstadt, Germany since 1969, Neckarsulm, Germany since 1969, Bratislava, Slovakia since 2005, Györ, Hungary, Changchun, China since 1995, Brussels, Belgium since 2007, Aurangabad, India since 2006.
