Audi’s Ingolstadt plant director Albert Mayer is to retire this autumn and will be succeeded by Achim Heinfling, who is currently managing director of Audi Hungaria.

“Over the past three and a half years, Albert Mayer has dedicated himself to Audi’s home location of Ingolstadt as plant director and has put his heart and soul into the plant and the concerns of his team,” said Audi production board member, Peter Kössler.

“Albert Mayer has been particularly successful in making production more flexible. Until he retires in the fall, he will continue in his role as plant director with his full vigour – just like he has always done.”

Heinfling has been at Audi for almost 30 years and is currently managing director of Audi Hungaria.

Alfons Dintner is to be Achim Heinfling’s successor as managing director of the Audi plant in Gyor, Hungary.

Until May, 2019, he was managing director of Audi México; before that, he was plant director and general manager at Audi Brussels.
