VW has been facing serious problems for a long time. It started with "dieselgat", which severely damaged the company's image. To erase the bad impression, the company developed an expansion strategy in the EV market and intended to dethrone Tesla as the world's largest EV manufacturer. This is how the MEB platform and the first ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 models were created. However, the plan failed, and the software developed by Cariad, a subsidiary of Volkswagen, is to blame. The car's underdeveloped system first delayed the introduction of cars to the market and later hampered its sales. As a consequence, the management changed the company's president, and the new one "turned all plans upside down" Work began on new platforms, stopping the development of the existing ones. The exception is the PPE platform, for the Audi and Porsche brands, which were already so close to production that it was decided to implement them. The VW ID.7 was also introduced, the electric equivalent of the Passat, specially designed for the Chinese customer. Unfortunately, only 300 units were ordered in the first 72 hours after the start of sales, which set off all the alarm bells at the Volkswagen headquarters. This year, domestic Chinese car brands have presented such a mass of well-made, advanced and relatively cheap EV cars that Volkswagen's offer is simply not very attractive. To get back on track, VW intends to reduce the development time for new models from 50 to 36 months. This is likely to happen by reducing the time and quantity of units tested. Such tactics can have a negative impact on the quality of products and further loss of markets. Does this mean that Volkswagen will go bankrupt? Unfortunately, anything is possible. It would be a pity.
