Audi was particularly successful in the USA where it sold 65,959 vehicles (up 38.8
percent). 257,642 units (up 5.5 percent) were sold in Germany. This gave the company
a market share in Germany of 6.8 percent in 1999 (6.5 percent in the previous year).
261,499 Audis were sold in Western Europe (not including Germany) (up 1.8 percent).
Vehicle sales in Japan dropped 27.2 percent to 6,429 units, partly as a result of the
nation's general economic situation. 43,179 vehicles (up 2.2 percent) were delivered to
customers in other markets. This figure includes 6,911 vehicles sold in China (down 8.8
percent). A significant increase in demand is expected this year following the market
launch of the Audi A6, which has been modified for the Chinese market and is produced
in China.
Vehicle production in the Audi Group rose in 1999 by 1.1 percent to 626,059 units,
including 252 Lamborghini Diablo models. The model with the highest volume was the
Audi A4 which accounted for 248,428 units, followed by the Audi A6 with 161,037, the
Audi A3 with 143,333, the Audi TT with 52,579 and the Audi A8 with 14,636 units. The
number of engines manufactured by Audi in Györ (Hungary) and Ingolstadt went up by
1.9 percent to 1,265,465 units. Cosworth Technology Limited was also consolidated as
a new subsidiary for the first time in 1999.
