Audi Dealers Scramble To Make Dealerships Larger After Record Sales Boom

Audi dealers, riding a sales bonanza, are also in the throes of a $1 billion building boom as they prepare to fulfill the brand's long-term goal of selling 200,000 vehicles a year in the U.S.

In Orlando, Audi sales are up 86 percent, the company says, since AutoNation Inc., the top-selling U.S. dealership group, opened its $21 million Audi South Orlando dealership in April. The store grabbed the territory previously held by Holler-Classic Automotive Group, which moved its operation to a new, larger store on the city's north side last year and named it Audi North Orlando.

Great news. With increased investment in U.S. infrastructure, Audi will be able to handle capacity to meet its sharply rising sales in the U.S. market.

Good job Audi.

Now, how about giving VW a hand?

Audi's gains are misleading given that they sell a fraction of the volume of BMW or Mercedes.

Right it is all Q3 and A3, because the rest of the lineup declined last month.
