Audi reports that its car sales during the first quarter of 2022 decreased by 16.8% to 385,084, although a year ago the first quarter was “above-average.”<\/p>\n

According to the manufacturer, the two main causes behind the noticeable decline are supply shortages and renewed COVID-19 lockdowns in China.<\/p>\n

With this as background, all-electric car sales of the Audi<\/a> brand do not look bad. In Q1, some 24,236<\/strong> units were delivered, which is 66% more<\/strong> than a year ago. That’s about 6.3%<\/strong> of Audi’s total sales and the second highest result within the Volkswagen Group<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, while the year-over-year increase is significant, compared to the previous quarter, it’s not so rosy. Deliveries noticeably decreased compared to Q4.<\/p>\n

Sales of the plug-in hybrid models were not disclosed.<\/p>\n

Among several Audi electric cars, the top two families are the Audi Q4 e-tron\/Audi Q4 Sportback\u00a0e-tron<\/a> (10,700) and Audi e-tron<\/a>, Audi e-tron Sportback<\/a> and the S-versions of both (10,300).<\/p>\n

It means that the Audi e-tron GT\/Audi RS e-tron GT<\/a> noted up to over 3,200 units.<\/p>\n

Assuming business as usual, this year Audi should be able to sell a six-digit number of BEVs, compared to 81,894 in 2021<\/a>.<\/p>\n

According to the previously announced plans, in the next few years, the number of all-electric models will triple to more than 20.<\/p>\n
