Volkswagen Group reports substantial rise in first-quarter sales revenue and earnings
"We began 2010 with a large number of attractive new vehicles and are continuing our
model rollout," Chairman of the Board of Management Prof. Dr. Martin Winterkorn
commented on Wednesday. "The good start to the year confirms we are on the right
track and have been able to capture an above-average share of growth on automotive
markets compared with the first quarter of 2009," Winterkorn underscored. "However,
we must continue to monitor further developments closely. Our targets for 2010 - to
grow deliveries, sales revenue and operating profit - remain unchanged."
