The Volkswagen Group Annual Media, Analyst and Investor Conference took place on March 10, 2026.
“In 2025 we put the new strength of the Volkswagen Group on the road and kept our company firmly on track, despite increasing global headwinds. We saw strong market demand for our innovative, exciting products, which won numerous prestigious awards. With state-of-the-art technologies, that make our customers’ everyday lives easier, safer and more comfortable. We have demonstrated that our substance is robust and that our future-oriented programs are working. Supported by strong financial momentum at year-end, we further strengthened our company. After three intensive years of realignment within the Volkswagen Group, we are seeing tangible progress. At the same time, we are operating in a fundamentally different environment. We are therefore determined to continue to pursue the course we have set. All the more reason for us to now enter the next phase of our transformation: adapting our business model to new conditions, expanding our regional footprint, continuing our disciplined work on saving costs, and delivering cutting-edge products. In 2026, we will launch affordable electric mobility with premium technology. In the Chinese market, we will start the largest product campaign in our history. And we will set key milestones for batteries, software and autonomous driving on our path to becoming the global automotive technology driver.”![]()
“2025 was shaped by geopolitical tensions, tariffs and intense competitive pressure. In this demanding environment, we launched 30 new models, made visible progress with our restructuring, generated solid net cash flow and thus kept our net liquidity stable at a solid level. These were important steps to further boost the Volkswagen Group’s resilience. But the operating margin of 4.6 percent adjusted for restructuring is not sufficient in the long run. In this challenging environment, we want to keep our combustion engine vehicles technologically competitive, continue investing in exciting electric vehicles and the latest software solutions for our customers, and expand our regional presence, particularly in the United States. We can only realize this if we continue to rigorously reduce costs, leverage Group synergies, reduce complexity and thus sustainably increase profitability. This is what we will focus on in the coming months.”![]()
