History

Audi Hungaria was founded in 1993 as Audi Hungaria Motor Kft. The engine factory was inaugurated a year later. Automobile production began in 1998 with the assembly of the Audi TT Coupé. There were also the TT Roadster (from 1999), Audi A3 and S3 (2001-2003), Audi A3 Cabriolet (from 2007) and Audi RS 3 Sportback (from 2010). The painted bodies for final assembly came from Ingolstadt. By 2013, Audi had invested 5.7 billion euros in the site. This made Audi the largest foreign investor in Hungary up to that point. In 2013 the new vehicle plant in Győr was inaugurated. Since then, the A3 sedan and cabriolet, and since 2014 the TT coupé and roadster, have been completely manufactured here. In 2015, 2,022,520 engines and 160,206 automobiles were produced at Audi Hungaria Motor. This means that almost all engines for Audi vehicles were manufactured in Győr in 2016. In January 2016 it was announced that the new generation of the Audi Q3 would be produced in Győr. At the beginning of 2017, Audi Hungaria Motor Kft. merged with its parent company (Audi Hungaria Services Zrt.) as part of a corporate restructuring.
