What does VW get out of this?

[–] [email protected] 42 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Volkswagens EV platform is a mess because the CEO responsible for the pivot to EV within VW, was only allowed to implement it if he stopped being the CEO. So the next guy half assed the 80B$ pivot to EV, leading to VW being one of the worst performers amongst EV producing OEMs.

So now they are on the market to buy whatever is needed to get them out of the hot mess they created themselves.
