Audi To Focus Only On Electric Cars In India From 2033

Audi has already launched four electric cars in India which include the e-tron and e-tron Sportback along with the GT and RS GT versions.

Audi’s focus in India would be entirely on electric vehicles during the next decade. The German luxury automaker made the news today, stating that by 2033, it will only be concentrating on EVs. The world’s largest automaker in Germany intends to discontinue producing vehicles with foreign combustion engines. Comparing its competing luxury carmakers, Audi India, which has already entered the EV market, has the greatest selection of electric vehicles available domestically.

Balbir Singh Dhillon, Head of Audi India, has said that the German auto giant will phase out all the ICE models currently available by 2032, before making a definite shift towards electric vehicles.

In September last year, Audi launched the e-tron GT and RS GT electric sports cars in the Indian car market at a starting price of ₹1.79 crore (ex showroom). The Audi RS e-tron GT is priced at ₹2,04,99,000 (ex-showroom). Earlier in July last year, Audi has launched the e-tron and e-tron Sportback.

Earlier, Audi had announced that it aims to have 15 per cent of its sales to be electric vehicles globally in the next three years. Dhillon had said, “By 2026 onwards, all new generation cars will be electric. If we get reasonable volumes, we can start assembly of EVs in India only.”

Dhillon said Audi is taking utmost care about safety of EV batteries amid several EV fire incidents across India. The Centre has recently issued notices EV manufacturers whose vehicles were reported have exploded due to faulty batteries. At Audi, all components for the battery are brought individually and assembled at its facilities by trained professionals, clarified Dhillon.

On the back of its EV launch spree last year, Audi India reported a massive 101 per cent jump sales in 2021. The increase in sales is compared to the previous year. Even during the first six months of this year Audi has witnessed a jump of 49 per cent in sales.
