VW aims for 6.5% ROS as it cuts Arteon and shifts focus to volume

Volkswagen has set out a new strategy to focus on more volume products and boost its return on sales, which will result in the end of production for the Arteon.

The Fastback and Sportback model succeeded the VW CC, offering a higher level of specification and refinement than the Passat with which it shared a platform.

Volkswagen intends to achieve a 6.5% return on sales by 2026, under a performance programme called "Accelerate Forward | Road to 6.5".
