WOW. Audi's sales figure is darn close to MB, huh? that's scary. When I was young and growing up (I'm still in 20s lol), it was BMW and MB undisputed. All other brands including Audi and even Lexus and Infiniti weren't even mentioned as luxury cars.

In theory, Audi will catch up to both MB and BMW at least as far as technology and engineering because they share stuff with Porsche, Lamborghini, etc.
But as far as brand goes, I don't think Audi will ever take over MB and BMW. Not in our lifetime at least.
