Audi Reports Slight Revenue Gain in 2025 Amid Profit Decline, EV Deliveries Surge 35.6%

On March 17, the Audi Group released its financial results for 2025, reporting annual revenue of €65.5 billion, up 1.5% year-over-year. Operating profit stood at €3.37 billion, a 13.6% decline from the previous year, resulting in a narrowed profit margin. Global deliveries totaled 1.624 million vehicles, essentially flat compared to the prior year, with all-electric vehicle deliveries surging 35.6% year-over-year to 223,000 units, accounting for 13.6% of total deliveries. Net cash flow from operating activities reached €3.42 billion, an 11.4% increase year-over-year. Audi attributed the earnings pressure primarily to geopolitical tensions, intensified market competition, and newly imposed U.S. tariffs, which impacted earnings by approximately €1.2 billion. In China, Audi delivered 618,000 vehicles, bringing its cumulative customer base in the market past the 10-million mark, though it faced fierce price competition. The company has initiated a strategic restructuring aimed at enhancing long-term profitability, and its recovery performance in 2026 will be closely watched.
