Recently took ownership of a 2024 SQ8 and the dealer concurred with a sizeable paint anomaly below the clear coat that we discovered near the front passenger handle. Plain as day to us all so I'm not sure how it was cleared at this level (10:45 in the video). Needless to say, the dealer 'contacted' Audi but we never heard back as to what they were prepared to do for us on a $141K vehicle (Canadian $). I swear, no one gives a crap about anything anymore (referring to the dealer). This video is fine I guess. I'm just venting.
And of course, we can see only "chaisis" production but not the other parts, most vital. For you, saying that nobody works there, that's wrong, everything later is done mostly by humans. All the electronics / engine / interior integration stuff are done by humans...
So the car cannot be ordered and configured yet and they are producing various configurations that people might not want? With Audi you basically need to add everything in the configurator...
The pictures are probably a bit old, the cars that were built here are either for the dealers as exhibits or for the press events to which hundreds of reporters are sometimes invited, who then all get their own test car.
Literally not how anything at all works. The *VAST* majority of buyers choose one that's on the lot, preconfigured by people at each respective dealer who know what buyers want. Enthusiasts who handpick and wait months for their specific car are the tiny, noisy minority of buyers.
The 4’s and 5’s merged together to become one car and the 6’s and 7’s merge together to become one car.. with the R8 and TTRS being discontinued.. they are getting ready for EV WORLD, trust me.
not a fan of drone shots, its look like just for showing off skills. constantly moving makes footage looks fuzzy. close up, zoom in detail shots are things that interests me
I have to say I like the exterior design!! But the passenger display is not necessary and the tiny shift handle is not cool... The huge display reminds me of Chevy.... Exactly the same...
@@ilord112 I think every car manufacturer will move in that direction. BMW has had it since the latest BMW 3 Series. I think you have to see it in real life , when u sit in the car.
@@ilord112 The new Samsung smartphone looks like Apple xd, they are just looking for sales figures, if a trend works then it will be implemented in a similar way.
Tesla changed car manufacturing forever. The process surely resulted in fewer jobs for humans but lower manufacturing costs for car makers in the long run.
Tesla has nothing to do with the automation depicted in this footage, Kuka robots are German developed and German car manufacturers have been using automation like this for decades now, long before Tesla existed. Tesla has developed some of its own new manufacturing processes, but generally the fit, finish and quality of assembly of Tesla ranks poorly, especially compared to the finish of Audi, which is among the best in the world.
There is no "new Audi emblem". It's black because they ordered the Black Optics package, hence the black grille surrounds instead of the silver ones. It's an optional package, if it bothers you so much.
Hats off to the drone pilot capturing this with the chassis moving along the line and all the automation going on. Amazing work.
Hats off to cameramen back in the 80s doing this in Spielberg movies without a friggin quadrocopter using just a crane
It looks like a sci-fi movie. Truly stunning technology
yeah, and made possible from our tax dollars, believe it or not.
@@xx133 we don’t use dollars in Europe 😉
Awesome technology... Love Audi!
How the hell have we humans managed to produce such a beautiful advanced state of the art facility like this. Wonderful process to watch.
i can watch this all day.... in fact, I'm doing that right now.
Are you still watching?
@@MaslAlek yes offcourse.

Idk what these clowns are talkin about, this footage is awesome
😢 I literally am in love. I cannot wait man.
Great footage of the manufacturing process. I wish they'd bring these A5 Avants to the US., so beautiful.
Excelente viatura A5 Avant.
Vai ser um enorme sucesso a todos os níveis mundiais!

So the A4 is now the A5???
yes
@@plaisbois951 no more coupe either :(

My next car ❤
Ps: coming from an Audi A3 and could not be happier.
That was one helluva video. Much appreciated!
Nice. 2025
I did the factory tour at ingolstadt it's fantastic, I have an a5 myself and it was incredible to watch them build others, it's fascinating.
lovely design.
Wow. Nice to see the assemblage. Beautiful car as well.

Except the new A5 is really the new A4.
So,it's a sedan in theory but it's actually a fastback/sportback ?
yeap

Made in Turkey, ooooh , it's Germany, ok, but where are the Germans 😅😅😅😅
I think those drone shots were unnecessary. Quite a risk for some questionable shots
Not quite a full process missing out the interior, but I enjoyed what was shown. I don't like the new look however
Much better than the 3 series touring. But these door handles are crap.

Oh no... better accuracy and fewer mistakes.

I see that only native Germans are on the production line.
This is an actual Audi, given that it is made in Ingolstadt...
First the inclusion.....second the quality ! Prioririties.
@@syncro16v germans invented this car: designer, engineer etc.
I was shocked. I don't think I saw one German on the assembly line. I thought the plant was in Turkey or somewhere in that area.

No more clamshell hood, nor frameless door windows😂

hate the drone footage.
those drone footage are awful
It's such a boring design. Generic even. It could pass for a KIA or a Chevrolet. Very sad day Audi.
