What Audi New Orleans does

Audi New Orleans is an authorized Audi dealership located at 3400 N. Causeway Blvd in Metairie, Louisiana, serving the New Orleans metropolitan area including Slidell, Covington, Mandeville, Kenner, Baton Rouge, and the North Shore. Operated as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sonic Automotive, Inc. (NYSE: SAH) — a Fortune-level automotive and powersports retailer with more than 140 locations nationwide — the dealership delivers the full Audi retail stack: new vehicle sales, certified pre-owned and pre-owned sales, factory-authorized service, parts and accessories, and financing/leasing through Audi Financial Services.

The dealership's product portfolio spans Audi's complete lineup, from the entry-luxury A3 sedan and the newly launched 2026 Q3 compact SUV through the Q5/Q7/Q8 SUV family, A5/A6 sedans, and the full e-tron electric range (Q4, Q6, SQ6, Q8, SQ8, S e-tron GT, RS e-tron GT performance, with MSRPs spanning $49,800 to $167,000). The pre-owned and Certified Pre-Owned program includes a 125+ component inspection, a 1-year/20,000-mile limited warranty honored at 300+ Audi dealerships nationally, and 24-hour roadside assistance. Service operations are staffed by factory-trained technicians using Genuine Audi Parts, supported by AudiCare prepaid maintenance packages available in Standard, e-tron, and Premium tiers, plus value-priced services such as a $169.95 oil change, $199.95 brake flush, and $229.95 four-wheel alignment. Vehicles and services are sold under Sonic Automotive's "Sonic Transparent Pricing" model with no hidden fees.

Revenue is generated across five streams: new vehicle sales, pre-owned/CPO sales, service and maintenance, parts and accessories, and financing/leasing — primarily through Audi Financial Services with a supplemental Sunbit "Service Now, Pay Later" option for service work. Pricing is published online with current lease specials (e.g., 2026 Q3 at $689/month, Q5 at $799/month, A3 at $599/month) and APR offers. The go-to-market combines showroom-based retail with digital channels including online inventory browsing, financing applications, trade-in valuation, and appointment scheduling, supported by third-party review platforms (DealerRater, Yelp, Cars.com, Edmunds), email marketing, and organic social. Customer segments include luxury vehicle buyers purchasing new vehicles, existing Audi owners seeking service, and value-conscious buyers acquiring certified pre-owned units. The dealership has been recognized by Sonic Automotive's parent through the 2026 Newsweek Most Trustworthy Companies in America designation.
