The Volkswagen Group achieved the first goal of its Strategy 2018 last year – the group delivered over 10 million vehicles to customers.
According to the Chairman of the Board of Management of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft, Prof Martin Winterkorn, 10.14 million vehicles were handed over to customers worldwide from January to December 2014.
“That is impressive; we are vigorously implementing our Strategy 2018 despite challenging market conditions. We are also making good progress with our other main goals – return on sales, customer satisfaction and top employer,” Winterkorn said.
Developments in the month of December were also positive, with deliveries running at 881,000 units against 857,600 in December 2013.
Group Board member for Sales Christian Klingler said the group has doubled vehicle deliveries in the last 10 years.
Klingler described it as outstanding performance and an impressive result, stating that all group brands have played their part in achieving the results despite difficult market conditions.
The Volkswagen passenger cars brand delivered 6.12 million vehicles to customers worldwide from January to December 2014. This means the brand has doubled deliveries since 2004, and topped the six-million mark for the first time.
