Corporate citizenship

AUDI HUNGARIA Zrt. has been an important driver for the development of the Hungarian economy and the city of Győr since 1993. For Audi Hungaria, it is only natural to accept social responsibility and promote local cultural and sporting events with the goal of improving the quality of life in the region. Examples from the cultural scene include sponsorship of the Győr Ballet Ensemble, funding the Győr Philharmonic Orchestra and supporting various cultural events, such as the Jazz Terrace in Pannonhalma.

AUDI HUNGARIA Zrt. is also an important member of Győr’s sporting community. The company has been the main and name sponsor of the Győri AUDI ETO women’s handball team since 2006 and the name sponsor of the 5,500-seat Audi Aréna Győr.

As an acknowledgment of its social responsibility, the company launched its “Audi hilft” campaign in 2019, a unique initiative in the areas of education, social care, environmental protection and nature conservation. Seven regional institutions and civil organizations saw their dream come true as a result. Audi Hungaria has also been involved in health care in the region since the company’s founding. It has donated several times to the Petz Aladár County Hospital, and presented an Audi A3 Sedan* to the outpatient clinic operated by Győr’s primary care physicians. Audi Hungaria provided an Audi A4 Avant* to the Győr emergency medical services in 2017. The command center uses the vehicle primarily for special calls and trips to severely ill patients.

In 2020, Audi Hungaria contributed 100 million forints to the fight against the coronavirus in the region.The company made donations to six regional facilities in May 2020. The amount of 100 million forints was split between the Petz Aladár County Hospital in Győr, the Győr Lifesaving Foundation, the Győr District Medical Emergency Service, the Mosonmagyaróvár District Medical Emergency Service, the United Health and Social Institute Győr and the Homeless Outreach Service Nonprofit Kft. At the start of the coronavirus pandemic, the company assumed the total cost for the acquisition of two ventilators for the hospital in Győr. Audi Hungaria also donated special protective clothing for medical personnel.

The Széchenyi István University in Győr held the Formula Student Symposium with the support of Audi Hungaria for the sixth time in 2020. Luca Marmorini, former head of engine development for the Ferrari Formula 1 team, gave a lecture at the event. The international symposium, which was attended by roughly 440 students from 13 countries including the USA and Canada, was held online this year.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data have been determined according to the measurement procedures prescribed by law. Since 1st September 2017, certain new vehicles are already being type-approved according to the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), a more realistic test procedure for measuring fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. Starting on September 1st 2018, the New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) will be replaced by the WLTP in stages. Owing to the more realistic test conditions, the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions measured according to the WLTP will, in many cases, be higher than those measured according to the NEDC. Therefore, the usage of CO2 emission values measured according to WLTP for vehicle taxation from 1st September 2018 on can cause changes in this regards as well. For further information on the differences between the WLTP and NEDC, please visit www.audi.de/wltp.

We are currently still required by law to state the NEDC figures. In the case of new vehicles which have been type-approved according to the WLTP, the NEDC figures are derived from the WLTP data. It is possible to specify the WLTP figures voluntarily in addition until such time as this is required by law. In cases where the NEDC figures are specified as value ranges, these do not refer to a particular individual vehicle and do not constitute part of the sales offering. They are intended exclusively as a means of comparison between different vehicle types. Additional equipment and accessories (e.g. add-on parts, different tire formats, etc.) may change the relevant vehicle parameters, such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, and, in conjunction with weather and traffic conditions and individual driving style, may affect fuel consumption, electrical power consumption, CO2 emissions and the performance figures for the vehicle.

Further information on official fuel consumption figures and the official specific CO2 emissions of new passenger cars can be found in the “Guide on the fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption of new passenger car models”, which is available free of charge at all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de.
