Volkswagen has overtaken Toyota to become the world's best-selling carmaker, the first time the German company has held the position.
Japan's Toyota, which had topped sales for the past four years, sold 10.175 million vehicles globally in 2016.
That fell short of the 10.31 million...@ugoezeh's blog: Volkswagen overtakes Toyota as the world's biggest... http://ugoezeh..com/2017/01/volkswagen-overtakes-toyota-as-worlds.html?spref=tw

Really? I need facts and figures to believe this

Very possible when you consider all the marquees under Volkswagen

How possible is this? More facts are needed to back this claim up

Some ppl think VW is just about beetles and buses. VW owns the following brands:
Audi
Bentley Motors
Bugatti Automobiles
Ducati
Ducati Corse
Lamborghini
MAN SE
Neoplan
Porsche
Scania
SEAT
Škoda Auto
Volkswagen
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles
Volkswagen Marine
So go figure

The article specifies 2016 sales

Unless dat polo is a 2016 model I don't see how dat comes into play in this thread

If only ur friend has had his polo scanned with a VCDS he wld av been able to pinpoint the issue

Perhaps he only needs to do a readaptation

i know its 2016 sales, i am a big fan of german machines especially the BIMA, but there is something about volkswagen that annoys me. electrical problems. i havent handled any of the 2016 anyway, so i wouldnt know what they represent.
