Audi has more than fulfilled its CO₂ fleet target for Europe in 2020 on the basis of preliminary figures. With a calculated average of 101.5g/km, the company lay well below the legally required value of 105.6g/km. This is an improvement of around 20% compared to the average of 2019.

The basis for calculating the fleet figures are the approximately 585,000 newly registered vehicles in the 28 countries of the European Union and in Norway and Iceland. A positive influence on the fleet figure derives in particular from the significant rise in deliveries of the all-electric Audi e-tron and e-tron Sportback, as well Audi's plug-in hybrids.

In 2020, Audi already had nine plug-in hybrid models in the portfolio, some of them in major series such as the A3, the A6, the A7 Sportback, the Q7 and the Q8. By 2025, Audi aims to supply more than 30 electric models, around 25 of them fully electric. 

Audi is continuing its transformation into a provider of sustainable premium mobility, and is at present the biggest premium maker of electric vehicles among the three German premium brands. Demand for the successful models in the e-tron series rose by 79.5% compared to the previous year.

Globally, the Audi e-tron is the best-selling electric vehicle of German premium manufacturers. In Norway, it was the highest-selling model in 2020, and in Germany the Audi e-tron series was able to more than double its sales volume in the final quarter of last year in comparison to 2019.

Audi will shortly introduce the Audi e-tron GT, an emotional Gran Turismo and Audi's highest-performance electric car. It will be followed by the Audi Q4 e-tron, the first Audi model based on the high-volume Modular Electrification Platform (MEB) of the Volkswagen Group.
