Audi Sues German Importer Over Unauthorized Sales of China-Only EVs

Audi AG is taking legal action against a German independent importer for attempting to sell two of its electric vehicle models, the Q4 e-tron and Q5 e-tron, which are exclusively manufactured and sold in China. The luxury automaker argues that these vehicles lack European type approval and could pose safety or recall issues for consumers. This dispute highlights the complexities of parallel imports and regional market regulations within the automotive industry.
