VW is one of the major car companies on the planet.
They are tiny in our market here in the US . but globbally ..
they are in the top three I believe....for units sold, or total sales ...
or however you want to measure it.
This includes all their sub-brands ...Audi, Lamborginni, Bugatti, Seat,
a good portion of Porsche I believe..and others.

VW also has a production car that gets in the 200 mpg range , just
coming out , in Europe.
