VW has to buy additional emission points

Volkswagen sold 47,200 e-cars in China in the first nine months. This represents a significant increase in sales in the third quarter of 2021, after only just over 18,000 e-cars were sold in the first half of the year. „We were able to significantly accelerate the market ramp-up in China in the third quarter and are well on our way to achieving our annual target of 80,000 to 100,000 vehicles delivered,“ Christian Dahlheim, head of group sales, said. In September, VW was almost head to head with Chinese rivals Xpeng and Nio. All of these companies were able to sell around 10,000 e-cars.
