Audi Ireland has reported an increase of 37% in the uptake by Irish customers of its vehicle finance packages for 2013.

The figures compare customer uptake of financial packages year-to-date versus the same period last year and reveal that approximately €44 million has been provided in vehicle finance packages to Irish customers in the first ten months alone and a total of €121 million has been lent since 2009.

With an impressive customer acceptance rate of 82% year-to-date, the Audi Finance Personal Contract Plan (PCP) has proven to be the most popular finance option for those Irish motorists looking to buy a new Audi model.

This growth is set to continue for the remainder of 2013 due to the success of the Future Now Sales Events currently taking place at authorised Audi dealerships nationwide. Effective until 31st of December, Future Now offers potential customers the opportunity to experience the 2014 Audi collection with a range of exclusive upgrade packages providing significant customer savings. Future Now 2014 includes a complementary three year Audi Service Pack along with a suite of attractive PCP finance rates across the Audi range starting with the Audi A1 available from €229 per month.

Christian Gussen, managing director of Audi Ireland commented: “At Audi, we understand that each customer’s needs are different and we go to great lengths to offer all Audi customers a flexible finance solution that will work best for them. Audi in Ireland is the number one premium brand since 2009 thanks to the combination of a superb model range, exceptional customer service and the flexible finance we offer across the model range.”
