Audi Argentina

What Audi Argentina does

Audi Argentina is the local Argentine division of Audi AG, operated within Volkswagen Argentina S.A. and headquartered at the Centro Industrial Pacheco facility in General Pacheco, Buenos Aires Province. The business imports, distributes, and services the full Audi range through a network of 17 authorized dealers spanning the Buenos Aires metropolitan area and interior provinces (Chaco, Córdoba, Santa Fe, Mendoza, Tierra del Fuego, Tucumán, Salta). The 23-model catalogue spans compact to full-size segments across the A1, A3, A5, A6 sedan lines and the Q2, Q3, Q5, Q6, Q7, Q8 SUV lines, with body-style variants (Sportback, Sedan, Avant), and three powertrain types: petrol/diesel (TFSI/TDI), plug-in hybrid (RS 5 Sedán/Avant), and full battery-electric (Q6 e-tron, e-tron, RS e-tron GT).

Underlying technology is inherited from Audi AG and includes the proprietary quattro all-wheel-drive system, Audi Space Frame aluminum hybrid construction, S tronic dual-clutch transmission, MMI Navigation plus infotainment, TFSI/TDI powertrains, and a driver-assistance suite (Audi pre sense, adaptive cruise control, active lane assist, parking system, drive select). The Argentina business layers on supporting products and services: the Audi Lounge exclusive customer space in CABA, Audi Driving Experience track programs, 24/7 Audi Assistance roadside service, Audi Maintenance Plans, original accessories, and EV charging partnerships with Shell Recharge and Siemens deployed across dealer sites and public locations.

Revenue mechanics combine one-time vehicle sales (USD 41,300 A1 to USD 162,000+ RS5), after-sales service and parts, financing facilitated through Volkswagen Financial Services (with promotional 0% TNA offers), original accessories hardware sales, and a dedicated corporate fleet program (Audi Empresa). Customers are split between high-net-worth individual buyers and corporate fleet accounts, supported by a hybrid sales motion combining dealer field sales, an online configurator and stock-search portal, and experiential marketing.
