ESG Factbook

Reflection of trees on the glass facade of a modern building. The glass structure, with visible fastening elements, creates an abstract overlay of nature and architecture. The scene blends the organic shapes of the trees with the geometric lines of the facade.

The ESG Factbook focuses on providing both quantitative and qualitative references and “Further Information” across the core dimensions of Volkswagen`s Environmental, Social, and Governance sections. In addition the Factbook also addresses broader ESG-relevant topics such as Just Transition and other emerging themes. It is primarily grounded in disclosures of the Annual Report 2024, with particular emphasis on the Sustainability Report 2024 as the core reference. To ensure a holistic and well-substantiated view, the Factbook also integrates insights from additional authoritative sources, including corporate policies, official websites, and other relevant governance documents.

The specified fuel consumption and emission data does not refer to a single vehicle and is not part of the offer but is only intended for comparison between different types of vehicles. Additional equipment and accessories (additional components, tyre formats, etc.) can alter relevant vehicle parameters such as weight, rolling resistance and aerodynamics, affecting the vehicle's fuel consumption, power consumption, CO2 emissions and driving performance values in addition to weather and traffic conditions and individual driving behavior. Further information on official fuel consumption data and official specific CO2 emissions for new passenger cars can be found in the "Guide to fuel economy, CO2 emissions and power consumption for new passenger car models", which is available free of charge from all sales dealerships and from DAT Deutsche Automobil Treuhand GmbH, Hellmuth-Hirth-Str. 1, D-73760 Ostfildern, Germany and at www.dat.de/co2.
