According to the FN50 annual survey conducted in Britain, Audi is the most reliable manufacturer, as voted by 600,000 company car drivers from the 50 biggest leasing companies in the country.
The FN50 survey, commissioned annually by the specialist fleet title Fleet News, is the largest poll of its type in the UK. We think it's a good explanation as to why Audi has managed to clim to the number four spot in overall British car sales, ahead even of Jaguar.
While Audi's FWD and quattro cars lose points in auto tests for fun factor, models like the A3 compact hatch and A3 saloon and estate are all in the top 10 most reliable company cars.
At the FN50 Awards, held last night in London, Head of Audi Fleet Sales James Douglas collected the Most Reliable Manufacturer Award on behalf of the brand, and commented: “Fleet managers and the drivers they serve have every right to be a brand’s harshest critics because so much of their business life revolves around the cars chosen by, and for them, and they need to be able to count on them unconditionally. We are delighted that the key fleet-focused Audi models continue to uphold our reputation for quality and engineering excellence in the hands of drivers who arguably demand the most from them.”
