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.
