Brand Group Core improves sales revenue and achieves progress in cost efficiency
In the first half of 2025, the Volkswagen, Škoda, SEAT/Cupra and Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles brands significantly improved sales revenue (+5.0%) to about 72.5 billion euros in a challenging market environment. Despite the adverse impact of significantly higher US import tariffs, it was possible to boost the operating result of the Brand Group Core to 3.46 billion euros. Key factors in this solid result are the rejuvenated product range, improved capacity utilization at the plants, reduced factory costs – and therefore the consistent implementation of the agreed restructuring initiatives. -

At the same time, provisions in connection with CO₂ regulations in Europe as well as the diesel issue impacted the operating result, which decreased to 1.12 billion euros in the first quarter. Inventory write-downs in connection with the import duties announced by the United States also had an adverse effect on the result. -
