Audi, part of the Volkswagen group, recorded a net profit of €4.617 billion in 2025, up 10.2% from 2024, driven by an improved financial result.
The carmaker reported revenue of €65.503 billion last year — up 1.5% from 2024 — boosted by electric vehicles and sales of the Terramar model from Spanish brand Cupra. The operating return on sales margin fell to 5.1%, down from 6% in 2024.
Operating profit dropped 13.6% to €3.371 billion, weighed down by €1.2 billion in US customs duties and €400 million in provisions for CO2 emissions regulations and restructuring costs. The brand also faced intense competition in China, where an electric and hybrid vehicle price war is under way.

Combined deliveries across Audi, Bentley and Lamborghini fell 2.8% to 1,644,429 units. Audi’s electric vehicles reached a record 223,032 deliveries — up 36%.
CEO Gernot Döllner said “in 2025, Audi took bold steps and responded to current challenges,” noting that “geopolitical uncertainties and global competitive pressure kept the automotive sector in suspense last year.”
Audi plans to cut 6,000 of the 7,500 agreed job reductions by end of 2027 without forced redundancies, and forecasts 2026 revenue of €63-68 billion with an operating return on sales of 6-8%.
