Interesting. I placed my order on 4/23 and just got the email that my Q7 was done being built over the weekend (and ready to be shipped), seemingly right before the strike. I'm hoping that my car will still be of high quality and not built by disgruntled workers...

Maybe mine will be built by happier workers making more money. Then, I'll be happy until they try to pass that raise onto my new car price.

In case anyone cares:

Where are the Audi Group’s production locations?
The headquarters of the Audi Group are located in Ingolstadt, where Technical Development, Sales and Administration as well as most vehicle manufacturing operations are based. The Audi A3 and A3 Sportback models, the A4 car line, the A5 Sportback and the A5 Coupé, RS 5 Coupé and Q5 models are built there. In addition, the Company makes bodies for the A3 Cabriolet, the RS 3 Sportback and the TT car line in Ingolstadt.

The Neckarsulm plant is where the A4 Sedan and A5 Cabriolet models, the A6 car line, the A7 Sportback and the A8 luxury sedan are manufactured. The head offices of quattro GmbH, a fully owned subsidiary of AUDI AG, are also located there. In addition to building high-performance vehicles such as the Audi Q7 V12 TDI and its bespoke manufacturing of the R8 models, quattro GmbH offers an extensive customization program for all Audi vehicles, along with exclusive lifestyle articles that embody the spirit of the brand with the four rings.

AUDI HUNGARIA MOTOR Kft., Győr (Hungary), develops and builds engines for the Audi brand, for other Volkswagen Group companies and for third parties. Models of the TT car line are also manufactured at the Hungarian plant jointly with Ingolstadt, and the A3 Cabriolet and RS 3 Sportback are assembled there. Since its founding, this company has developed into one of Hungary’s biggest exporters.

In Brussels (Belgium), AUDI BRUSSELS S.A./N.V. specializes in the exclusive production of the models of the A1 car line.

Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A. builds the Gallardo and Aventador supercars at Sant’Agata Bolognese, in northern Italy. The 12-cylinder engines for the Aventador are also built there by Lamborghini.

The Q7 and Q3 models are built at other VW Group plants, at Bratislava (Slovakia) and Martorell (Spain) respectively.

At the Changchun plant (China), the joint venture FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Company, Ltd. builds long-wheelbase versions of the A4 Sedan and A6 Sedan, plus the Q5, which are supplied to the local market.

At Aurangabad (India), the A4 Sedan, A6 Sedan and Q5 models are built for the local market at the VW Group plant.

This is somewhat dated as the Q5 is assembled in Mexico for MY2018 (started production in July 2016).
