A Audi must present the models A5 and Q5 later this year. At least, that’s what the company’s CEO said, Gernot Dollneduring the release of the company’s financial results throughout 2023. Furthermore, the executive spoke a little about the company’s plans, which will stop producing electric vehicles over time to follow the market trend.
According to Dollne, the company aims to launch 20 new models by the end of 2025, but not many details were shown about this. Therefore, this number is speculated to be made up of a mix of new cars and facelifts. The next vehicle, in turn, should be the A6 e-tron model, which was shown in 2023 still in concept format.

As for the A5 and Q5 models, the company plans to officially launch them by the end of the year. One of the highlights about the cars is the fact that they are the first to feature the new Premium Combustion Platform (PPC). Furthermore, the automaker’s CEO revealed that Audi will have a fully electric model in all main segments by the year 2027.
Another important fact is the company’s confirmation that it will continue with the previously announced electrification strategy. Even with the electric market experiencing a slowdown, the idea is that the last endothermic model will be launched in 2026, with only battery-powered models being introduced to the market after that.
Even so, the company will continue to sell its combustion-powered models, offering a portfolio made up of endothermic, hybrid and electric models. This should be the brand’s offering for the next 10 years, abandoning traditional models around 2033. Even so, it will closely monitor market trends to modify plans, if necessary.
Regarding finances, Audi is not doing badly and had an increase of 13.1%, with an operating profit of 6.3 million euros and an operating margin of 9%. Finally, check out the details about the Q8 e-tron Dakar model, which arrived on the European market in January and the company and its competitors’ adherence to Tesla’s charging standard.
