Audi Sport is go - Motoring

Enter Audi Sport – the sub-brand under which all of Audi's most potent sports car will be reside. "We've previously referred to our performance cars subsidiary as quattro GmbH," said Andrew Doyle, Audi Australia managing director, "But now we group them all together under the banner of Audi Sport. The new RS 3 and R8 were also on show, the former expected to account for at least half of all Audi Sport registrations and propel Australia into a podium sales position for high-performance Audi vehicles, Doyle told motoring. "On a global basis we could be ranked number three globally in terms of our sales projections for 2016," he said, "and that'll be strongly driven by the Audi RS3 next year. Audi Australia is currently ranked within the top 10 globally for RS and R8 sales, comprising the RS Q3, TT RS, RS 4 Avant, RS 5 Coupe, RS 6 Avant, RS 7 Sportback and R8 variants at the top of the tree. And the new branding will propel Audi's most formidable vehicles to new highs, says Doyle. Source: www.motoring.com.au
