Good luck with it VW.. How them Phaetons sellin?
And I dont understand it. VW owns Audi.. Why would they go after the Audi market???
I wish VW would stick to what it used to do best, and what its known for. Good, basic cars. If VW is making luxury cars, whats the purpose of Audi? If they want to get into sports cars, why have Porsche?
Its like if Ford was to come out with luxury car to compete with the Town Car..Doesnt make sense.. If its cheaper than a Town Car, it would take away business from their existing line. If it is the same price as a Town Car, people would just buy the damn Town Car.
Same with this. If they want to get into the Audi market, why not just sell it as an Audi at the same price?
And VW doesnt understand why it has to struggle in the US market...
I agree with you 100 %. What happened to VW? They used to be the one German car you can afford. Now even the bettle can dent your pockets.
Now as far as them competing with their own companies, you have to look at it from there view. Not everyone knows about VW owning Audi or even Dodge, Jeep, and Crystler being all of the same company. VW owns Audi and thats their luxury cars. Audi then competes with BMW and Mercedes. If VW made a car two compete with Audi then they would also be competing with BMW and Benz. So people now have another choice. Instead of buying Benz or BMW they can buy the VW or Audi. So even if VW sales go down and Audi goes up, the money still goes to one place. Plus with more of their own cars in the running they can take away sales from other competitors.
