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.

BEV sales by model in Q4:

e-tron SUV - 1,981 (up 86%)
e-tron Sportback - 383 (down 61%)
e-tron GT - 764 (new)
Q4 e-tron SUV - 45 (new)
Q4 Sportback e-tron - 19 (new)
Total - 3,192 (up 57%) and 9.6% share in Audi volume

Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not provide any details about its plug-in hybrid sales.
