AUDI RECYCLING PROCESS - What Happens to Audi Cars at the End of their Life?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 мар 2023
- Audi, along with 15 partners from the recycling, research, and supplier sectors, is working on the "MaterialLoop" project to reuse post-consumer materials from end-of-life vehicles in the production of new cars. The aim is to avoid downcycling and achieve a highly efficient circular economy concept. In October 2022, 100 vehicles were dismantled and the targeted disassembly of individual components enabled the retention of high-quality secondary materials for recycling. Audi wants to increase the share of recyclates in the Audi fleet and is also involved in recycling used automotive glass, plastics, and aluminum.

Lots of reasons an OEM scraps cars, to prevent liability. No VIN, Pre-production units (parts are owned by the suppliers, and may not be perfect - in need of fine-tuning, color/appearance), bought-back lemons (yes, every OEM has those...), defects on production lines, engineering mules, test units, etc.
I am surprised they let headlights be crushed at 4:50. Those are expensive!
Idiots they are
Expensive in aftermarket, but cheap in production
@@Stefuu_ These things cost a fortune new. I was actually SHOCKED to see them crushed like that. It almost hurts...
👍
@@Sunset3725 It is called capitalism.
Those cars are like brand new wtf 💀
Prototypes
@@robloxfan4271 Dude stop talking things that you don’t know, These vehicles are not prototypes..
BMW produces 250k cars a year and scraps 125k. Cheap german rental cars like BMW and Audi usually last for 5 years, only the best survivors get sold to the public. Basically no one buys a new car in germany.
Maybe some are floded or totaled
@St3fan or they're just audis lol😁
The priority should be on repair and reuse. If these two are impossible then only recycle will be the final option. Destroying good cars and parts in the name of saving environment is just absurd!!! If they repair and reuse old cars and parts then they will sell less new ones. It is dirty business too.
It depends on labour in the specific country. If it is economically not phsible, then the car is scrapped. One scrap car in a country is not in another. I know that France sends lots of cars to Poland to be repaired and used rather than scrapping them. Also lots of parts go to African countries.
It's amazing the amount of people that don't understand that OEMs dismantle, crush, and recycle their prototype vehicles and get UPSET. Prototypes are liability with (likely) non-compliant parts and that aren't certified for road use. Be glad these vehicles are getting recycled and not just rotting away in a holding yard.
At least they aren't like Hyundai/Kia too. I've seen two videos on here showing them crush the cars without even draining the fluids and not even removing the battery
So does it mean that they are written off in accidents or something? Cars don't rot unless they are are either damaged or have been subject to alot of use or been lengthy exposed to the elements through large amounts of usage.
where they belong, but still sad so see cars that are perfectly in chape destroyed like that
Mostly These Cars have broken engines or stuff that is too expensive to repair
they probably removed the seats because they can recover them, but yeah they could have easily saved some spare parts like the headlights, it does involve more logistics so I'm not sure it's worth it
It seems to me that it is not environmentally friendly to dispose of relatively new cars, the Audis in this video looked usable, but they were disposed of after spending additional energy. And then they will produce the same cars, spending a lot of energy and producing no less emissions. It would be more logical to dispose of really old and unusable cars
@@BettaAxeSomebody certified pre-owned?
Great process of the metallurgical materials. Every brands can do same thing otherwise we could not be stop mining.
Good to see that the parts are being re-used.
But why all the recent Audi’s (facelift Q7 etc)
I believe that the newer vehicles are pre-production test vehicles and parts cannot be used from them as they have not been approved for normal road traffic use, or they are damaged. It is a liability issue where it is easier for VAG (as with most car manufacturers) to destroy test vehicles and their components so none end up on an unsuspecting persons vehicle then they have a lawsuit for unsafe parts.
Prototype vehicle
Or that thing has (even tho it's a TFSI which would make it unlikely) be a long distance cruiser that already has 200.000km and the transmission broke or the engine, or it could have been flooded.
WTH? why are they destroying these cars that look almost brand new???
Could have been technical issues like water damage
Test vehicles.
To sell more new cars
they are run down rental cars, they are worth next to nothing.
La société de consommation dans toute sa splendeur !👎👎👎👎🥶 que va t’il en être du recyclage des voitures électriques ?
those look like pretty new cars to be recycled already. what gives?
It's Audi. So it looks good on the outside, but it's a total ruin not worth fixing on the inside: engine, transmission, suspension, electronics.
Noooooo it’s like a horror movie 😢
Can we have a genuine explanation why ? That’s clean oil coming out ????
Are these the ones that Audi bought back off there customers cos of the emission scandal ???
Man this is so fake. This is not recycling. One video they tear apart the windshield and remove the headlights individually... The next section they crush a Q7 alltogether windshield, headlights everything. Where's the recycling in that?
They are different cars :)
@@megaemintm my point exactly
they couldn't repair these cars?!
these are dead rental cars, they are worth next to nothing.
some are demo cars used by journalists whose abused them
I would’ve thought that they could reuse the glass
My guess : second-hand leasing cars totalled because the cost of repairs exceeded the value of the car.
See how they don't even bother removing the lights of the Q7 and they do on the A4 and Q3. Q7 customers don't buy second hand lights. There is no market for those.
Body shops are interested in second-hand parts for repairs though.
Of course there is a market
Yes ofcourse there's a market for any part that's costly - very much!
''End of life vehicle'', they seem in pretty good shape to me. Do they have big enough repair bills that it's better to just recycle it? Thanks for showing how disposable Audi's are.
Hi, so I don't know if you're from the U.S. maybe you already know but I'll just tell you anyway:
Audis just like BMWs and Mercedes have a different customer base here than they have in the U.S. A lot of older people 50+ buy them, which means they usally have a dry place to stand in, are not driven hard on the autobahn (only exeption being company cars which usally are midsize stationwagons here like the A4, 3 series or c-class they get driven by all kinds of people). But engines and transmissions can fail on these like on any other car or when you trade then in at an Audi, Mercedes or BMW dealership they usally get crapped if they're older than 6 years because they can't get their specific warranty for the cars (like the Audi Gebrauchtwagen Plus[=used car plus] I don't know the name of BMWs and Mercedes used car warrantys but I think Mercedes are called Junge Sterne [=young stars] max. 4 years old and 50.000km/~31.000miles) and if they have more than 80.000km/~50.000miles, they are just not worth keeping in stock for the dealerships. The market for older used premium cars is usally seached out by younger people between 18-28 years but they don't wanna spend more than around 20.000€/~21.300$.
Other possabilities why these cars are getting scrapped might be water damage (we had a big flood catastrophy(?) in some regions of Germany in 2021 or some people here also explained that these cars could have been test cars.
Audi, actiially all vag group, French, English and Italian cars are almost all of them junk, endless moneypits. Even brand New ones. Just untill know i didn't see any good Chinese brand either, and i forgot the US GM and Stellantis group.
Some dealers have a thing where they fix vehicles with (undamaged) parts taken off another used car that was totaled or unusable, for 30-50% off compared to brand new parts. Audi should do that too.
Audi does that. Thats were the seats in the boxes go to
They already do. According to European Directive 2000/53, they have targets of %95 reuse+recover by weight.
Quand je vois les optique des voitures partir à la casse c’est dommage, pourquoi Audi ne mettrai pas en place un système de pièce d’occasion certifié ?
Je me suis fait la même réflexion, quand je vois toutes les pièces jeter qui aurait pu resservir je trouve ça honteux.
I wish you could give me one even if it's defective, it's very difficult to own a car in the country I live in.
Это лучшая работа в мире 😮
Couldn't they use actual old car to showcase this ? Why tf use new cars
Probably virtue signalling. To show that they're "sustainable." As do most companies nowadays.
where can I buy the full led front and rear lights recycled, of the Audi Q3 sportback at a advantageous price, could someone give me the link to contact? thank you in advance ! Audi is the best!!!!!!
is it profitable or cost efficient ?
Yes because they reuse the materials
4:41 didn't even recycle the headlights wtf recycling is this then
Brah I would like that Q5 airbag
I don't know why that hurts!
Dlaczego tak się robi ze '' świeżymi '' autami? Ewentualne uszkodzenia(takie jak Pan zaznaczał na początku filmu) serwis może naprawić i odsprzedać auto w programie audi select plus.
Should be called audi car wasting process
Alors la choqué les bagnoles neuves détruire bordel ou va le monde 🤯🤯
3:12 why do I feel like I’m watching some sort of 5 minute crafts
Wenn ich in dieser Geschwindigkeit arbeiten würde, dann hätte mich mein Chef schon längst gekündigt...
THEY CRUSH THEN WITH THE LED LIGHTS ON??? That is so expensive!!!
This is not Recycling. This is capitalism.
They produce a car with expected life of car is 10 years. Manufacturers must sell you a new car in 10 years to survive.
I just don't understand why they also don't take off the headlamps units and the rear ones too, it has polyester, and has electronic parts, and also the windscreen, they cut it, why they don't take it all off like those windscreen companies do? they just take the all thing off. I see a lot of stuff here, they could have been doing better.
This is crazy
Instead of crushing it.
Why don't you just completely
disassemble it with all the parts of.
And sell it for used part instead.
Would make a lot more sense.
the parts are worth nothing.
imagine waiting 6 months to finally sell that door panel or headlight. it's a waste of space to store those. Also it's against Audi's interest to sell used parts when they can sell new ones.
Looks to me like Audi won't have any cars to sell new parts for. They are all being scrapped. Something isn't adding up here
Can i go and work in there? It seems so cool! This is amazing!
Most of those cars look fine ?
It's Interesting That Audi Has A Recycling Process.
Why they don't separate the plastic parts?
Because it is a state of the art facility, which can automaticially segregate materials after crushed and shredded.
Perfekt!
What a shame, humans are doomed
Process was not same for all cars?? Headlights, gauges, seats have been dismentaled for some cars. But for some of they did not... A bit weird..
best moment at 1:31
I remember my relative was working one Opel and they had to crush new Opel Calibra with all goodies because there was paint error lol. Had guards to watch it was crushed.
What is the damage of this car what is the reason
C'est méchant ce n'est pas 😭❤️
Those vehicles have too be destroyed ☝🏾 mostly likely preproduction vehicles (no VIN) press vehicles and test vehicles. The parts and everything are not production quality so it mandated they be recycled. This is the way manufacturing has done it for decades 🥺sad but part of the process.
Che pena😢 sono ancora nuove queste auto😢
Not the A7 C8 😕
Until now I am using a Daewoo Nubira model 99
It’s like an embalming process getting those fluids out
Audi❤😢
Quanto spreco non capisco la demolizione di questi veicoli .che potevano essere commercializzati ha un prezzo di mercato.😢😢😢
Those are like brand new ☠️☠️☠️
Two stone chips on the front. Yep, crusher fodder.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Mich hätte interessiert was so ein Fahrzeug gelaufen ist,.
Und was an dem Fahrzeugen Tran war weil verschrottet wird.
Eman e cik
😢my heart is bleeding
well if you would buy a 200 or v8 or maybe a s2 i think you will noot scrap the car
Ein 4 Jahre altes Auto wird ohne Demontage einfach platt gemacht (Audi Q7 55)😢
it's not recycling , they are just spoil some products like headlights
Die Matrix LED Scheinwerfer in der Presse....kosten ja nix
Juckt Audi recht wenig
why they are crushing Brand new cars those cars gone sell like donuts in the balkans like brand new 50.000euro each
not good for the brand to see such young cars being scrapped out.
Der Gesamte Prozess benötigt sehr viel Energie...
So, we are part exchanging and paying to buy back our cars in another form…
Andere müssen für solche Karren ein Schweinegeld hinlegen!
Mais je comprends pas c'est des voitures neuves là !!!!
Надо было разобрать на части и продавать 😲 фары например, ручки, зеркала, датчики, электрику, двери, механизмы, стекла. 4:16
Кто ж новые тогда купит ) капитализм ... )
Главное затирать всем про экологию )
Продали :) Этим занимаются все страны европы и японцы. Разбор на запчасти. Остальное в утиль. Не думайте что немцы такие глупые :)))
bro headlights and taillights
Для начала надо было отделить пластик, металл, стекло 5:36
Они суть не показали. Там гигантская дробилка, измельчает всю машину в кусочки. Магнитом отделают металл. Пластик, стекло, медь и алюмишки, уже отдельно отделают, в другой технике. Здесь не показан весь процесс.
it hurt
Our "economy" in one video. It would be funny if it isnt sad.
This is not a good recommendation for Audi. Why are so many perfectly good cars being scrapped? Even if there is a good reason smashing the glass and windscreens is stupid.
THIS CAR ARE NEW WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ME RUNNER MY MAZDA 3 2008 OMG AND IS TO THE PEOPLE TO BE ECOLOGIALY FRENDLY FUK THIS SHIT
And those ridiculously expensive headlights, they didn’t rescue them like all the other things they removed before crushing the cars
Each glass they broke, headlights, etc they broke will one they worth a fortune...
Is it forbidden to sell them to russia?
No its not. Except for the prototypes
These are brand new fucking cars
🤔C'est désolant de détruire de tels véhicules, surtout lorsque l'on connaît leurs prix en neuf dans les concessions ...
А там где нет машин, войну устроили.
Recycle when you sell this parts but not crashing them
Sakit melihat ini semua😅
Is that ECO to melt down aluminium parts with plastic parts? Buhahaha.
Ne bi mogo da radim ovaj poso, umreo bi od depresiju
😳
Booom
The fuck? Those headlights would help other people. Sell the used working parts. That'd be a better recycle. Otherwise more will be made.
So sad to see as a Audi owner
Bro, am car guy and this is sad...
These cars are brand new 😭
A méditer
This video hurts me.
I thought this was a rage vid
VAG hell, or what your car is made of.
😲😭😭😭😭😢
Чем больше машин утилизируют, тем больше продадут. Это не имеет отношение к рациональному использованию ресурсов. Только продажи и прибыль.
