Audi India Plans Local Electric Vehicle Production to Double Market Share by 2028
Audi India is considering local production of a battery electric vehicle (BEV), with a decision expected within months. The luxury carmaker aims to double its market share in India’s luxury segment from around 8% to 15-16% over the next three to five years. Its strategy focuses on customer centricity, new product launches, and expanding its dealership network, especially in tier-II and tier-III cities. Audi also plans to leverage the proposed India-EU free trade agreement to introduce more models and test market demand before local manufacturing.
