"This is the world's first certified CO2-neutral mass production in the premium segment, he continued.
Actually, Audi has been preparing to start electric car production (e-tron) in recent years. But convincing significant things began to increase in the past few months, such as the maturation of a factory in Brussels, Belgium which was called very modern and capable of making quality premium electric cars.
"Audi builds many competencies 'at home' (factory-Red) for Audi e-tron, and develops battery technology and its own driving system," said Managing Director of Audi Brussels, Patrick Danau.
This included gradual rebuilding the body shop, paint shop, and assembly line. The factory also has a new section for battery production.
