VW's Audi says December sales jump 15 percent on China, U.S. demand

BERLIN (Reuters) - Audi (DE:VOWG_p) said on Friday sales jumped 15 percent in December to 150,000 luxury cars and sport-utility vehicles on double-digit gains in the United States and China.

Deliveries of Volkswagen's flagship premium division set a new record last year, rising 11 percent to 1.74 million cars, with China accounting for a third of total volume, the Ingolstadt-based carmaker said.
