In which city in Germany are Audi automobiles mostly produced?

The story behind the answer

Audi automobiles are mostly produced in Ingolstadt, Germany, the company’s headquarters and largest German production site.

Ingolstadt, in Bavaria, became central to Audi’s modern manufacturing history after Auto Union established its postwar base there. Volkswagen acquired a major holding in Auto Union in 1964 and later took full control, helping expand the Ingolstadt factory. Audi’s headquarters moved there in 1985, reinforcing the city’s association with the brand.

The Ingolstadt plant carries out complete vehicle production for several models, including the Audi A3 and electric A6 e-tron and Q6 e-tron. Audi also manufactures vehicles at Neckarsulm in Germany and at plants in other countries, so Ingolstadt is not the location of every Audi automobile. Neckarsulm specializes in larger and higher-end models such as the A8 and parts of the A5 and A6 ranges.

The wording “mostly” points to Ingolstadt as Audi’s principal German production center, not an exclusive manufacturing location. Production line-ups can change as new models and electric vehicles are assigned to different factories.
