In the anniversary year: Volkswagen R to enter the 24h Nürburgring in 2027

Volkswagen R will take part in the 24h Nürburgring in 2027. For this purpose, the brand from Warmenau is developing an all-wheel drive Golf R for the racetrack together with Max Kruse Racing. A new show car already provides a first glimpse of the spectacular racing car. The race participation marking the 25th anniversary of the Volkswagen R brand is a clear commitment to the brand’s roots: the ‘R’ is derived from ‘racing’ – and taking part in the race will make this aspiration visible in competition.

Brand Group Core with solid results – special items impact Volkswagen Brand

The Brand Group Core (BGC), the organizational entity combining the volume brands of the Volkswagen Group, closed the first quarter of 2026 with an operating result of 1.54 billion euros. Sales ran at 34.9 billion euros, and the operating margin was 4.4%. Compared with the prior-year period, unit sales rose moderately to 1.23 million vehicles. The development of results across all the brands of the Brand Group Core was buoyed by optimized product costs and consistent cost management. The negative impact of lower volumes in China and the USA was compensated for – bearing witness to sustained progress with efficiency measures.

Much more than a city car: world premiere of the all-new electric ID. Polo

Volkswagen is presenting the new ID. Polo and thus the all-electric version of one of the most successful models in its history. Sold over 20 million times, the Polo is now entering a new chapter – completely reimagined and systematically geared towards the future. Developed in Wolfsburg, the ID. Polo combines clear design, generous space and high quality with an attractive entry-level price starting from 24,995 euros (in Germany). The small car also sets technological standards: with a WLTP range of up to 454 km and the new Connected Travel Assist, including automatic traffic light recognition, efficient one-pedal driving or vehicle-to-load function that turns the ID. Polo into a mobile power source for devices such as e-bikes. Pre-sales of the new ID. Polo already start today, Wednesday (in Germany).
