Tesla has surpassed Audi in global sales for the first time in its history, and seems to point its engines towards the German Volkswagen group.
The market was positive for Tesla due to the 12 % reduction in Audi sales (1.67 million cars). In contrast, Tesla managed to place 1.79 million vehicles worldwide.
In the 2024 results report, Gernot Döllner, CEO of Audi, indicated that the company was affected by factors such as “global economic uncertainties.” He stressed that the intensification of competition was a constant last year.
Despite sales of the Audi Q5 (298,000 units), Audi A6 (244,000 units) and Audi Q3 (215,000 units) models, and “the renewal of the range in more than 20 models with a triple range of vehicles – electric, plug-in hybrids and combustion vehicles – it has not managed to surpass the sales of Elon Musk’s Tesla Model 3 and Tesla Model Y”.
