Audi has reached an all-time sales record in Australia, following its August 2006 result.

Closing the month with 479 vehicle sales, Audi is now 12 percent, or 375 units ahead of its August 2005 year-to-date result.

With a cumulative total of 3,573 units so far achieved, the company is confident of ending 2006 with another year of double digit growth, and another record result, according to managing director, Joerg Hofmann.

"With the new Audi Q7 soon to hit the showroom throughout the Audi dealer network, we are looking forward to the final four months of the year recording very strong sales," Hofmann said.

"Thanks also to our new TDI range of vehicles and aspirational cars like the new TT on the way, the Audi brand will continue to strengthen in this market."
