| Interesting article on the future of VW in this week's Economist mikefocke, '01S Sanford, NC - 8 years ago |
Two things that struck me from the article.
One, the huge proportion of total group profits that Porsche and Audi contribute compared to their sales volume.
Two, the VW Golf platform based vehicles are available with over 110 variations of steering wheel. And we think the Boxster has a long option list!
Also in today's news the head of VW's USA operations is no longer with us over the emissions issues.
