The new brand, branded simply with the "AUDI" lettering, aims to set new standards in the luxury electric vehicle market by merging Audi's renowned quality and technological innovation with a forward-thinking design approach. The inaugural mass-produced model of the AUDI brand will be based on the newly revealed concept car, positioned as a B-segment shooting brake, with mass production set to begin at SAIC Motor's Anting facility in Shanghai by August 2025.
In a partnership formalized on May 20 this year, Audi, SAIC Motor, and SAIC Volkswagen committed to co-developing the Advanced Digitized Platform (ADP) specifically for the Chinese market. This new platform will serve as the foundation for a new generation of intelligent, high-end connected electric vehicles.
