Audi India sold roughly 4,510 units in 2025, a period that saw GST 2.0 boost buyer confidence in the luxury segment. The company raised prices across its range by up to 2 % from April 1, 2026, citing higher input costs and currency fluctuations, and aims to launch the locally built Q3 on Oct 16, 2026.
