US: Audi BEV Sales Exceeded 10,000 In 2021
The Audi Q4 e-tron and Q4 Sportback e-tron joined the lineup with first customer deliveries in Q4.
Audi reports 33,184 vehicles sold in the U.S. during the fourth quarter of 2021 (down 46.9% year-over-year), but the year-to-date result is positive: 196,038 (up 5%).
In Q4, the company sold a total of 3,192 all-electric cars, which is 57% more than a year ago, and a new record of 9.6% of the total Audi volume.
Currently, the lineup consists of five models (some very similar to each other - SUV/Sportback versions). The Audi Q4 e-tron and Q4 Sportback e-tron joined the party recently. The duo noted, respectively, the first 45 and 19 sales (described as "Launch preparation vehicles") in Q4.
It's not a surprise that the electric Q4 entered the market in Q4 right?
It's expected that results will increase significantly in 2022 thanks to the Audi Q4 e-tron.
