VW US sales chief quits amid falling deliveries


BERLIN, Jan 7 (Reuters): A senior US sales manager has quit Volkswagen's North America operations just as the carmaker's deliveries in the world's second-largest auto market fall steeply.
Ron Stach, senior vice president of sales at Volkswagen of America, has left the automaker, a spokesman for VW in the United States said on Saturday, confirming a report by Automotive News.
He declined comment on the reason for Stach's departure. A spokesman at VW's global headquarters in Wolfsburg didn't return calls seeking comment.
Stach, who joined VW's North America operations in 2006 and previously worked at Mazda Motor Corp's division in the region, couldn't be reached for comment.
VW said last Wednesday that its US sales rose 5.2 per cent to 339,676 brand models last year but plunged 19 per cent in December.
