Good results were reported in the United States (+6.2 percent) and double-digit growth rates in China (+28.2 percent). Europe was also up slightly, by 3% compared to last year.

The Q3 and Q5 which are locally assembled in Changchun account for 72% of China's growth. Also, the A4 L which is also locally made aw increased demand by 41.1%. Next year, Audi will launch the new A3 sedan there, a car which is expected to be very successful.

“Despite significantly more difficult conditions in many key markets, we closed the first three quarters again with stronger sales than in the same period last year. We thus continue to perform better in every region around the world than the respective overall automobile market,” says Luca de Meo, Member of the Board of Management for Sales at AUDI AG. “In particular, the Q3, Q5 and A3 Sportback were driving our sales.”
