I hope that increasing Q7 output doesn't further strain Audi's production capacity or hurt quality on other new models. They're rolling out a lot of new cars in a short time period and boosting production numbers like that puts pressure on the whole enterprise.

Hey Ben,

16000, that is alot, it seems that people still like ''eggs'', after all this bird flu panic.

If you now what i mean?

Yep, that is a whole lot! I'm also a little concerned about QC issues. Same story at quattro GmbH last lear when talking to staff. Doubling the workforce in only 2 years time... that means a lot of effort will be needed to maintain quality.

I would not be regarding the Q7. They had more than 6 months after the presentation in Frankfurt 2005 to test it in public, and they did (regular test program, celebrity events, Dubai Driving experience,...).

And Ben - the first European buyers are your testpilots

Nice to know. But then again, same story with the RS 6, and we're still having those with issues...
