Commercial
During the early 1960s Auto Union was in commercial retreat: the Audi F103 was a relative success when compared with recent Auto Union products even if its commercial success was trumped by subsequent Audi models. In July 1967 it was reported that 100,000 Audis had been completed: production of the F103 had by now built up to a rate of almost 40,000 per year and the company was moved to deny speculation that another new Audi model would be presented at the Frankfurt Motor Show in the Autumn / Fall of 1967. (The Audi 100 was introduced only towards the end of 1968.)
