Since 1990 Volkswagen has manufactured a total of 6,049,207 cars in Zwickau. If this plant at its best produced 300,000 cars with an internal combustion engine.

Now with cars that will not emit a single gram of harmful substances or NOx suspended particles, or CO2, during their entire useful life, the plant could reach 330,000 units per year.

To reach this figure, two more electric cars and the new Cupra must go into production at the factory.

To celebrate the increase in production, the Zwickau square has published a video of one of the new, recently installed presses to welcome the new models that will allow VW to reach new production figures

Volkswagen plans to gradually transform the rest of its German plants into facilities dedicated exclusively to the manufacture of electric cars in the short term. Therefore, the assembly of its thermal models will gradually be transferred to other countries to dedicate all the German production capacity to the group’s electrical range.
