VW alcança marco histórico de 180 milhões de automóveis produzidos

VW seems willing to delay the launch of the electric Golf, which could be a setback for the German brand that is undergoing a major restructuring.

According to the German publication specialized in economic matters, “Handelsblatt”, the plan to remodel VW’s factory in Wolfsburg for next-generation electric vehicles has been halted due to budgetary constraints, thereby postponing the launch of the 100% electric Golf by about nine months, while the production of the current generation of the combustion Golf would be transferred to Mexico.

According to the company, the modernization measures for the Wolfsburg factory and the transfer of combustion Golf production to Mexico aim to save the company about €4 billion, at a time when VW is struggling with declining sales in China, as well as the slowdown in demand for electric vehicles in Europe.

The delay in the renovation of the VW factory, in addition to postponing the production of the electric Golf, will also impact the launch of the 100% electric T-Roc, which will be produced in the same factory, and in this sense, it is expected to face a possible delay in its market arrival.

This postponement in the renovation of the factory occurs at a time of great tension among the workers in Wolfsburg, where technical errors and equipment failures are paralyzing the production lines, according to the same sources, which suggest it could lead to a significant drop in production by the end of the year.

Despite the delays, the VW Group maintains its commitment to launch four low-cost electric models starting in 2026: ID.Cross, ID.Polo, Cupra Raval, and Skoda Epiq, to compete with Chinese brands.
