Audi CEO Rupert Stadler has recently confirmed plans of the company to introduce as many as 11 all-new models.
Stadler declined to give further details but said that they will continue to write this success story and expand their product range from the current 49 to 60 models. He further stated that they see a great deal of potential, particularly in the SUV segment and in the especially prestigious full-size category.
When we talk of the SUV segment, Audi has already announced plans to launch a Q1 in the year 2016. It could be accompanied by a variety of other crossovers including a Q2, Q4, Q6 and Q8. Stadler’s comment about the prestigious full-size category also raises the possibility of the long-rumored A9 which could be a coupe or an Allroad sedan.
Regardless of what the final plans of the company are, Audi has already delivered more than 1.5 million vehicles to customers in the current year. To celebrate the milestone, which occurred two years ahead of schedule, the 1.5 millionth car, an A3 Sportback, was personally presented to its German owner by the CEO and Audi sales chief Luca de Meo.
