Volkswagen's 'strategy 2018' drives sustainable future
Adjust font size:

VGC remains committed to a 20 percent reduction in fleet consumption and emissions by 2010. The implementation of the Powertrain technology, Volkswagen's proprietary environmentally-friendly technology brand, has already made remarkable inroads in achieving these objectives.

"So far, we have reduced the average fuel consumption of our automotive marques by 15 percent. Engine downsizing strategy is another sector we are focusing on. We are looking at not only reducing fuel consumption, but also at generating more power," said Vahland.

VGC also has underscored its commitment to the environment through a series of highly successful initiatives throughout China. As well as the introduction of its Powertrain technology, it has sponsored a TV series on road safety, produced a green education campaign (entitled "Volkswagen's Green Future Environmental Protection Initiatives"), and launched both the Shanghai Volkswagen's Olympic Wish Woods Plan and the FAW-Volkswagen's Public Welfare Woods program. It also provided a "Green Fleet" to assist with the logistics of the 2008 Olympics.
