Audi might consider building a plant in US.

Audi may join other German car makers by building an assembly plant in the United States in the next few years.
Audi CEO Rupert Stadler told TheCarConnection that a U.S. plant isn’t needed now but if Audi sales hit 1.2 million units globally, it would have to be considered.

Re: Audi might consider building a plant in US.

Any chance of this plant being shared with Volkswagen?

Re: Audi might consider building a plant in US.

Highly unlikely though, they're maxing out existing production facilities, and there's plenty more in Germany and elsewhere in Europe.

Re: Audi might consider building a plant in US.

The link doesn't specify which cars this potential factory could produce. I would think that the Q7 would be a good candidate since North Americans love their SUV's. Didn't the Q7 not sell well in the US though?

Re: Audi might consider building a plant in US.

Very interesting. This would greatly help the image of the brand in the States. Sticking the 'Made In The good old U.S of A' on some heavy marketing could do wonders!!!

Oh God lets hope not. If Audi want their image to rise, they need to get as far from VW as possible.

Re: Audi might consider building a plant in US.

This seems a good idea, especially considering the state of the dollar at the moment!
