Purpose

I will try my best to provide detailed info on various cars and what is like to live with them, I have already produced a few for Jaguar-car-forums, I will do my best to be unbiased, but it will be hard for some cars. I will re-produce press releases and copy from other motoring news.

The Volkswagen group of brands also shows a decline in October and the January-October period.

From January to October, the Volkswagen Group handed over 8.26 million vehicles to customers. Worldwide deliveries did not present a uniform picture. Deliveries by the Volkswagen brand in certain markets reflected especially the current diesel issue as a result of sales stoppages for the vehicles affected. Deliveries therefore fell in October (-5.3 per cent). 
At the same time, the Audi premium brand grew deliveries (+2.0 per cent), and there was a significant increase at sports car manufacturer Porsche (+18.2 per cent). As regards the various markets, there was a slight downward trend in Europe (-1.5 per cent) at the same time as growth in North America (+6.8 per cent). 

While the market situation in South America remains challenging, the Group deliveries in China rose again slightly in October (+1.6 per cent).
In the entire Asia-Pacific sales region, the Group delivered 3.21 million vehicles in the first 10 months of the year, with China, the largest single market, accounting for 2.89 million units.
The Group also recorded growth in North America, with 773,600 units delivered from January toOctober. Most of these vehicles, 505,900 units, were handed over in the United States, representing growth of 3.4 per cent. 
In South America, where the situation remained challenging, deliveries by the Group fell markedly (-26.4 per cent). Deliveries in Brazil, at 337,300 units, were the key factor in this development.
In the region of Western Europe, 2.90 million customers received a new vehicle in the year to October, representing growth of 5.4 per cent. The situation in Germany remained positive, with deliveries up by 4.1 per cent. 
The Volkswagen Group also recorded growth in other Western European markets. There were significant rises in Spain (+16.3 per cent) and Italy (+8.6 per cent). 
As a result of the tense situation in Russia (-37.0 per cent), a further downturn indeliveries was recorded in Central and Eastern Europe. In the period to October, the Group handed over 506,700 vehicles in this region.
