Audi, having used DB Cargo’s DBeco plus product to reduce emissions since 2010, is now the first company in Germany to organize its logistics operations by rail to be CO2-neutral.

DB Cargo switches all the energy to green electricity, all of which is derived from renewable energy sources in Germany. As Audi switches to rail transport, they are now making their way to CO2-neutral car manufacturing as well.
