Audi scoops three Business Car Awards

Audi celebrated three excellent wins in the Business Car Awards yesterday, topping the luxury, small 4 x 4 and sporting car categories.

The A8 triumphed for the third consecutive year in the luxury category, despite being the oldest car in its class.

The Audi Q5 beat stiff competition from Volvo’s XC60, the BMW X3, the Land Rover Freelander and the 2008 champion, the Honda CR-V.

The R8 follows the TT and last year’s victor, the A5, with its win in the sporting car category. Although not a natural fleet pick, there were more than 160 R8s registered as fleet purchases in 2009. Its rock-solid residual values and head-turning ability a Porsche 911 can only dream of are highlighted by businesscar.co.uk.

Fleet and Aftersales Marketing Manager Nathan Dennis commented: “this is a really great start to the year. Not only have we won three awards, but the A8 picked up its third win in a row – more than any other model has won. These awards mean more than most to us because it’s the people who buy and run our fleet cars who vote for them. It confirms that we’re doing a fantastic job and our products are world-class.”

The Business Car Awards are designed to highlight the best in business, and are chosen by the people whose firms depend on using top-quality products, technology and services on a daily basis. The winners are selected by the readers of Business Car magazine, website and email newsletters.
