Andreas Lehe was born 1968 in Koblenz.

After training as an electroplater and studying Materials Science/Surface Engineering at Aalen University, Lehe started his career at AUDI AG in Neckarsulm as a planner on the Surface Process Chain project. He worked on optimizing cross-process enhancements to the control cycles in Production with the aim of improving visual quality.

In 1996, Lehe moved to Ingolstadt to work on training concepts for production personnel for newly installed plant. He was appointed Head of the Plastics Paint Shop at the Ingolstadt site in 2000. Eight years later he was put in charge of the Top Coat area. At that time he was responsible for the production starts of the A3, TT, A4, A5 and Q5 models as well as for process and application technology.

In 2010, Lehe took charge of the A3 Paint Shop at the Ingolstadt plant. He restructured the area in that capacity, and during that time masterminded the successful ramp-up of one of the VW Group’s most advanced paint shops.

Lehe was Director of Production and Logistics at AUDI MÉXICO S.A. de C.V. from October 1, 2017, and was in charge of production of the Audi Q5 for the world market.

He took office as CEO of Audi México with effect from January 1, 2019. He continued to perform his previous role in an acting capacity.

Andreas Lehe returned to AUDI AG in Ingolstadt on November 1, 2020, where he heads the “Strategic Planning” area. He is thus responsible for the continuous further development of an integrated Audi production strategy and the associated global production network. He assumes responsibility in this function for central management of the Production division. He is also responsible for the digitalization of production processes.

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.
