Audi's deliveries in the world's second-biggest car market, where some of its diesel models have been found to carry illicit emissions-control devices, rose 11 percent to 202,000 autos in 2015, weekly magazine Wirtschaftswoche reported earlier on Wednesday, together with the full-year tally.

A spokeswoman at Ingolstadt-based Audi confirmed the report, saying that official sales data will be released on Friday. Audi increased global deliveries 10.5 percent in 2014 to 1.74 million.
