Great to see this, though I am not an Audi fan per se, but its always good to have competition , they are averaging 650 cars a month, by these numbers, that too with only Petrol Engines, a relatively old Q5, wish this forces BMW to pull up their socks, and get their bread and butters back, the regular 3 and a better specced X1 especially the petrol, and get the niche G30's (30d, M5), they brought the people to showrooms, even if they bought a lower priced car, even otherwise I don't understand when they are assembling the B48 30i engine here and the X3 M40i is an import, how does it hurt to give all 3 engine options 20d,30i and M40i, all money comes home to them, even if the sales of 2,3,3GL,5 overlap.

And yes if BMW is listening, why not import G30LCI 540i before we are forced with G68 LWB next year, many including me have our chequebooks ready for this.We see way too many E53s in Delhi NCR now to justify a case, they can even manufacture it here before the G68 in the extra kits.

With no homologation and for upto 2500 cars import laws, I believe they should have their whole line up of niche CBU cars here

Audi was offering great deals in March specially for BS6 P1 models. This seems to be the key reason for good sales in last quarter.

Also looking at price of 3 series and C class which now retails at around 67 on road in Gurgaon. Audi A4 technology variant at 57 on road after discounts looks like a great deal.

Audi need to also upgrade on the technology if they wish to gain momentum. Q3 which is just launched is most powerful car in its segment but it lacks technology like ADAS, ventilated seats.

The corresponding sales in the same month of the previous year has been given in brackets.

January 2023
Mercedes Benz: 1248 (1033) : +20%
BMW: 890 (915) : -3%

February 2023
Mercedes Benz: 1043 (1038) : + 0.5%
BMW: 610 (761) : - 20%

March 2023
Mercedes Benz: 1603 (1340) : +20%
BMW: 838 (1034) : -20%

The fact that the BMW has suffered a YoY decline of 20% for two consecutive months immediately upon launching their new bread-n-butter product, the new X1 speaks volumes of the level of sales disaster the new X1 is (i.e, leave alone any growth, the new X1 is not even able to maintain the same monthly sales as the outgoing model).

In April, Mercedes sold 1149 cars in India against 866 by BMW. (Source: Rushlane )

The MoM gap has come down but the YoY gap has increased between Mercedes and BMW. Mercedes is consolidating it's lead over BMW now.

Why are Audi's numbers regularly low? Is it only CBU cars total or all cars? I mean A4, A6, Q3 and Q5 should definitely have buyers comparable to corresponding BMW and Benz cars. Such a huge gap and Audi below even JLR and Volvo is unfathomable.

I think Audi is by choice only disclosing CBU number rather than the total sales from quite a number of months for reasons best known to them only. Their sales with the network and models they have must be more than JLR.

BMW Group India sold 5867 units during the January–June 2023 period.

I feel like Mercedes’ insane pricing is finally starting to hurt them — GLC for 85 lacs OTR is just absurd no matter how you look at it!

Expecting BMW, and specially Audi’s sales to skyrocket in the coming years. The three pointed star has something thinking to do, and brand value can only take it so far.
