Of delivered cars, 950,000 were produced in Changchun and the other 50,000 imported. Audi adds to date, no other carmaker in the premium segment has managed to sell more than a million cars in the Chinese market.
In the first nine months of 2010, Audi delivered some 175,000 units in China and Hong Kong, also a new record.
“Over the entire year, we will deliver well over 200,000 cars to customers in China,” said Audi China president Dietmar Voggenreiter.
“And we have already set our sights firmly on the next sales target: We intend to reach the second million within the next three years.”
