Volkswagen & Suzuki – it’s handbags at dawn

Volkswagen Suzuki Partnership - things aren't exactly rosy Back in 2009 Volkswagen invested a rather large chunk of change (around €2 billion) in Suzuki in exchange for a 20% stake in the Japanese car maker, and there were big hopes for advantages for both parties. Volkswagen were looking for a quick-fix route to the burgeoning car market in India, where Suzuki were doing very well, with sales in India last year of 1.13 million cars – almost half its production – in comparison to VW’s paltry sales of just 53,000.

And actually, in many ways, the Audi Q7 benefits from some of Khan’s work. The Audi Q7 isn’t the most iconic or visually appealing SUV on the planet, and rather than detracting from what’s on offer some aspects of the Audi Q7 Project do enhance.
