How much can be optimized at Volkswagen, one could read recently in the employee magazine “Inside”. As the Group announced that conclusion is incompatible with the phone confusion. So far there Smartphones with the operating systems Android, iOS, Windows or BlackBerry OS, the future all devices running Windows. “A unified system reduces the overall cost,” it says. There could save a six-figure sum.
The course does not even begin to tackle the consequences of the gas scandal. In the United States an agreement with authorities and plaintiffs’ lawyers is continued. The judge granted last another week postponement to a solution – probably a comparison in the billions – draw. . No wonder that the managers have asked the Group to the head, to find ways to save – and a new vision for VW
Yesterday, Müller the outcome of discussions before: “Together strategy 2025″ is his future program to make the Group one hand significantly more efficient, on the other hand also completely reorients it to digital business models and drive technologies. “We have brought the biggest change process in the history of Volkswagen on the road”, Müller said.
The carmaker is to be converted to a provider of mobility services. Most recently, VW therefore contributed $ 300 million in Israeli start-up Gett, a taxi app. Further acquisitions are planned. Gett is the nucleus, so Müller: “Around this core, we will in the next few years additional services such Robotaxis, carsharing or transport-on-demand group in rapid succession.”
Volkswagen is responding to new competitors like the dispatcher intermediaries Uber and digital companies like Google who are experimenting with self-driving cars

At the same time the current number of Modellvarian th, currently there are 340, reduced.
A quarter of sales to make up 2030 E-cars, so Müller. It is thus clear that one remains convinced Volkswagen, annually between eight and twelve million vehicles for sale. Although Müller stressed that given by predecessor Martin Winterkorn fixing no longer applies to size. Little one wants to be in Wolfsburg but obviously not. “We have a strong base on which we can build,” says Müller.

In a prepared annually ranking of the Center of Automotive Management on the performance of automotive groups Volkswagen slipped from number 1 from on. 7 New leader is Toyota. “Thanks to the high financial performance of the Premium daughters Audi and Porsche, as well as the principle high innovative strength, the VW Group can indeed keep more in the midfield,” said study leader Stefan Bratzel. The task list -from A as exhaust scandal to Z for future technologies – but is long. “The processing of strategic issues is a prerequisite for the medium- and long-term viability of the group.” Nevertheless, VW could thanks to the strong position in growing markets such as China again ascend to the highest-volume manufacturers.
This is good for Volkswagen, even if the size is no longer so important. Because of course, the group needs the revenue from the classic car business in order to finance the high investment in the future. . Each year, are to be saved only by efficiency gains eight billion euros
