Some clown I know insists that it is pronounced Audi like in 'audio' but I always say Audi like 'owdy' almost like howdy

Default Kinda like how they say Jag-You-Are
Apparently the African word jaguar comes from is similiar to how we say it here and not how the Brits bastardize it (even on the commercials).
