The Volkswagen Group has reported global deliveries of 6.6 million vehicles between January and September 2025 — a 1.2 percent increase compared to the same period last year. The growth was primarily fueled by surging demand in Europe and South America, which offset declines in China and North America.
We are benefiting from the continued positive momentum generated by our broad-based product offensive with a total of 60 new models,” said Marco Schubert, Member of the Group’s Extended Executive Committee for Sales. “Our all-electric models are a key driver of this positive development. In Europe, we delivered around 80 percent more of these models than last year.
