Default Where are the Q5 made?

I have read all over that the Q5 is made in Germany but got conflicting reports that it is made in also Hungary and India soon.

I have friends who have Audi from the past with major problems and they were all assembled in Hungary. Wonder if production in Hungary gots some issues.

Besides India, the Q5 is also made in China. I believe the US models are German made, or is it Hungary?

Did a factory visit myself a few months ago. The engine's are fabricated in Hungry and shipped to Germany. The rest of the Q5, US and European Specs are made and assembled in Ingolstadt.

All the US and Canadian Q5s are assembled in Ingolstat.

That is, until 2016, when the newly built (by then) plant in Mexico will be making the Q5.

Get 'em while they're hot...
