The luxury carmaker is seeking to accelerate its sales growth in India with the launch of the all-new Q5 SUV, one of its volume drivers next month.
It had suspended sales of its popular SUVS — Q3, Q5 and the Q7 last year when India moved to BS-VI emission norms with the company also deciding to stop offering diesel engine options in the country.
Audi India, which shares its annual sales numbers only, had sold 1,639 units in 2020. However, in terms of growth in the first eight months of 2021 it has already witnessed 115 per cent increase in sales.
