The Los Angeles County-based building now deploys environmentally rooted technology that substantively improves energy efficiency throughout the renovated structure. The luxury auto brand's new location is an LAcarGuy-owned dealership.

Overall, energy efficiency upgrades have been improved by initiatives that focus on reusing and recycling materials, and reducing water usage throughout the modernized facility.

“Audi remains steadfast in its commitment to advancing green technology and environmentally responsible business practices,” said Mike Cagle, director, Western Region for Audi of America. “Through the opening of Audi Pacific, we not only celebrate the largest Audi showroom in the United States, but also take great pride in achieving LEED Gold certification.”

The remodeled Audi Pacific dealership has been upgraded with energy-efficient water fixtures, low-energy use, and a 45-kilowatt DC solar PV system.
