Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A., the Italian manufacturer of high-performance sports cars,
likewise reconciles technology with ecology. Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A., a low-volume
manufacturer, maintains the same high safety and emissions standards as large-volume
manufacturers.
Emissions trading
Climate change and energy efficiency are the key environmental issues of our age. The
European Union has therefore adopted a pioneering role in the field of climate protection
and introduced trading of CO2 emissions rights on January 1, 2005. The Audi plants at Ingol-
stadt and Neckarsulm participate in this emissions trading system.
Thanks to measures to increase energy efficiency and the targeted reduction of energy
consumption, both plants are achieving a positive overall balance between the emissions
rights issued to them and their anticipated CO2 emissions in the first trading period (2005 to
2007). A surplus of emissions rights from the first two reporting years was sold in 2006.
Environmental Pact for Bavaria III
AUDI AG is participating in the third phase of the Environmental Pact for Bavaria, which
focuses on boosting innovativeness and promoting environmentally acceptable economic
growth. Through its involvement in the working forums within the Environmental Pact for
Bavaria, AUDI AG is helping to create incentives for environmentally acceptable economic
growth and is thus contributing towards the pact’s success. The Ingolstadt plant is involved
in various projects on Integrated Product Policy (IPP).
According to the IPP principle, AUDI AG adopts a holistic view of all phases of the prod-
uct life-cycle, from raw materials extraction to disposal. IPP furthermore enables AUDI AG to
tie suppliers systematically into the sustainable production process.
Fall in environmental pollution at group locations
Even considering the welcome rise in production, the overall energy consumption of the
Audi Group was kept stable.
The painting of vehicles during the production process is of particular environmental
relevance. In 2006, the paint shop at Ingolstadt was therefore further automated. The result-
ing improvement in the way paint is applied to bodies helped to cut paint consumption per
vehicle by around ten percent and thus also reduced solvent emissions further.
Detailed notes on environmental aspects can be found on the internet, in the Audi Envi-
ronmental Report at www.audi.de/umwelt, and in the environmental declarations as well as
on the group portal at www.volkswagen-sustainability.com.
