Audi Sets Fifth Consecutive Annual Sales Record and Expects 48th Consecutive Monthly Record in The U.S. As Brand Surpasses 2013's Sales Total With One Month Remaining.
- Through late November, Audi surpassed the previous full-year sales record of 158,061 vehicles set in 2013

- Audi in the U.S. has established annual sales records in each of the past five years

HERNDON, Virginia, December 1, 2014 – Audi set an annual U.S. sales record this past weekend by surpassing the previous record set in 2013.

The new milestone set with one month remaining means that 2014 is the fifth-consecutive record year for the premium brand. By the end of December, Audi expects to register 48 consecutive monthly sales records, the longest-running streak in the U.S. auto industry.

"Audi is making consistent progress in the upper echelon of America’s premium automobile segment," said Mark Del Rosso, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, Audi of America. "These gains reflect the benefits of a brand strategy built on sustainable sales growth, a network of passionate dealers, balanced pricing and, of course, compelling new models."

Audi of America has established both new vehicle and Certified pre-owned vehicle sales records in all ten months and expect to do so in November as well. A steady pace of sales records is just one indicator of Audi’s brand health in America. Throughout 2014, Audi has enjoyed sustained gains in customer awareness along with higher average transaction prices, reflecting the sustained appeal at top end of the U.S. luxury market.

Misleading headline. Yes it is factually correct, but Audi is desperately behind BMW and Mercedes for sales.

The headline viewed in and of itself, just the way it is, is 100% true and factually correct. Notice it doesn't mention anything about BMW or Mercedes-Benz.

I don't think that people who run Audi USA don't know their relative sales to their German competition. I am sure they are just concerned with shrinking the gap than just freaking out each month.

LOL - The monthly Audi sales headline submitted by GermanNut - the headline is more like a paragraph that reeks of desperation and validation.

In total global sales (which is what matters) - BMW leads Audi by a small margin with Mercedes in 3rd place. You can't just look at the US market anymore - China is a much larger market and will only continue that way.

Well, let's look at the full picture of global sales, though. Based on a recently published article regarding China, Audi's are owned by government bureaucrats and Mercedes are owned by the wealthiest citizens. If you are Audi or Mercedes, which would you rather gloat about? Yes, Audi is way ahead in China, but that's also after Mercedes' reputation was hit by their connection to a corrupt government since Mercedes used to be the car of choice for the government.
