CTOnews.com June 25 news, according to foreign media Automotive News Europe reports, Volkswagen CEO Obom (Oliver Blume) recently admitted the Audi brand product line "behind competitors" fact.

Obermu believes that the Audi brand has great potential, but it has not been translated into concrete products in recent years. Moreover, Audi's current lineup of models is facing an extremely embarrassing situation: not only lagging behind its competitors, but also lagging behind its own ability.

We have failed to defend our progressive leadership in front of our competitors, and there are serious software problems that have repeatedly delayed the launch of exciting new electric cars.

Audi delivered 136416 new cars in China from January to March 2023, down 16% from a year earlier.

Obermu still believes that Audi will rely on pure electric models to complete the mission of brand revival. According to the brand plan, Q6 e-tron, the first model based on Audi's new electric vehicle platform PPE (premium platform electric), will be officially launched in 2024, while a pure electric version of Porsche Macan will be launched at the same time.

Audi, Volkswagen and FAW of China announced the establishment of Audi FAW New Energy Joint Venture in Changchun, which is expected to be completed in December 2024 and will be put into production of three models based on the PPE high-end pure electric vehicle platform.
