By contrast, Audi’s push toward electric mobility continues to gain momentum. With more than 101,000 fully electric cars delivered worldwide in the first half of 2025, the premium brand recorded strong year-on-year growth (+32 percent). Of those, battery-electric models (BEV) were particularly popular in France (+196 percent), the Netherlands (+86 percent), and in the home market of Germany (+76 percent). Models that proved especially popular in the BEV segment were the Audi Q4 e-tron with around 45,000 deliveries and the Audi Q6 e-tron with around 36,000 units.
Audi delivered just under 288,000 vehicles in China. This decline (-10 percent) can be attributed, among other factors, to the ongoing highly intense competitive situation in that market. In the second half of 2025, Audi will further advance its product initiative in China with the launches of several new models, including the AUDI E5 Sportback, the Audi Q6L e-tron, along with the Audi A5L and A5L Sportback.
With roughly 13,000 deliveries in North America (excluding Mexico), Audi recorded a slight decrease (-4 percent) in fully electric models. Approximately 99,000 vehicles were delivered (-9 percent) in total. This development is due to the challenging economic conditions and the delayed impact of the current model initiative in this sales region.
In light of current market trends, the US tariff situation as well as restructuring expenses in connection with the Audi agreement for the future, Audi has updated ots 2025 forecast. Revenue should reach 65 to 70 billion euros. The operating margin is now foreseen to be in the corridor of 5 and 7 percent. The Audi Group expects net cash flow to reach 2.5 to 3.5 billion euros. The effects of the tariff deal that was recently struck between the US and the EU are currently being assessed.
