If Opel’s really planning to take market share away from Volkswagen, then they’d better pack a lunch because it’ll be a LONG day. Volkswagen has plans on the board to introduce TWO new models, the former chief executive of Volkswagen said while at the Frankfurt Auto Show.
This is already significant enough news in the face of a badly contracted economy–introducing new models is a cash-intensive process that requires loads of money and plenty of time and advertising, as well as focus groups, design and redesign and all like that.
But the new designs themselves may be the newest part, as they’re going to come out of the upcoming acquisition of Porsche.
Now that’s got my motor running–what if we get a car that looks like a Porsche with the gas mileage of a Volkswagen? That’d be a dream car right there, and one everybody else would be scrambling to imitate.
