Cape Town, 25 February, 2022 – Last night, Audi South Africa celebrated the progress, success and achievements of their national Dealer Network at a prestigious event hosted at the luxurious Quoin Rock estate in the Stellenbosch winelands. The annual Audi Silver Arrow Awards, named after the famous “Silver Arrow” racing vehicles that dominated the racing circuits in the 1930s, is a representation of the progressive performance within the Audi Dealer Network. Through this Dealer awards programme, top performers are acknowledged and rewarded for their continued determination to drive excellence within their Dealer organisations against key business performance indicators assigned by Audi South Africa.

“Performance is what drives Audi forward. Last year presented the perfect field to test our collective performance, yet even at a time where our Dealer Network had been challenged to a great extent, there are those who have shown the passion to perform and rise to the occasion. It is inspiring to see the continued commitment across Audi’s Dealer Network to maintain exceptional performance against our awards criteria, while supporting the Audi brand and business strategy,” says Sascha Sauer, Head of Audi South Africa.
