VW to sell 10m vehicles this year

Volkswagen, Europe's biggest car maker, is set to sell more than 10-million vehicles this year, chief executive Martin Winterkorn said on Thursday. "There is a good chance that we will already exceed the ten million deliveries mark this year -- four years earlier than originally planned," Winterkorn told the group's annual earnings news conference. VW "made a healthy start to 2014," Winterkorn said. In the first two months, about 1.5 million passenger cars and light commercial vehicles were delivered worldwide, a year-on-year increase of 4.7 per cent. Winterkorn said, this year and next year Volkswagen would launch more than 100 new models, successors and product enhancements, according to AFP.
