Last month, we prepared for oADD, expanded the list of Certified Provider Program offerings, piloted the Stream NitroLeads product, and reviewed Foureyes Summer of Audi campaign performance.


This month, we launch oADD for the first two pilot stores -- Audi Dallas and Audi Lakeland, update the Stream NitroLeads product, promote the Costco Auto Program, announce the ADMC customizable templates, and take a deep dive into July's all-time high Tier 3 website performance metrics.

Program Announcements

oADD Pilot Stores Launched!

oneAudi Digital Dealership (oADD) Website Platform


Audi of America is excited to announce the first two stores -- Audi Dallas and Audi Lakeland -- have successfully launched on the oADD platform!

The oADD platform creates a seamless shopping experience, connecting Tiers 1 and 3. This connection of Tiers 1 through 3 is intended to keep the customer in the Audi ecosystem, driving stronger cross-tier traffic and conversion opportunities. 


oADD will replace the Dealer.com platform for Audi dealers over the course of the next 12 months. Beginning with the first two pilot stores, Audi dealers will start migrating their Tier 3 websites from Dealer.com to oADD. The rollout will be a phased approach beginning with 5 pilot dealers and then migrating the remaining dealers at an approximate rate of 25 stores per month.


Please contact your Modern Retail Consultant (MRC) for more information about launching your oADD website.
