Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles outperforms the UK van market
Once again, despite challenging economic conditions, Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles outperformed the UK van market and increased sales across almost all its range during the first six months of 2012, to maintain a strong second place in the market behind Ford.
Official SMMT figures show sales of vans (up to 3.5 tonnes) fell 10 per cent up to the end of June, but Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles bucked this trend to achieve almost identical sales as the same period last year, and actually increased its market share from 11.4 to 12.6 per cent.
