以及GM的476万辆,成为今年上半年全球销量最大的汽车集团。

虽然今年上半年大众VW品牌的全球销售量比去年衰退,
但Audi、保时捷和Skoda在上半年的销售量比去年同期成长,让集团总销售量有所成长。
2016上半年,大众集团的全球销售量比去年增加1.5%,7.6万辆车。
While sales of its mass-market VW brand have suffered, this has been more
than offset by strong demand for luxury Audi and Porsche models as well as
Czech brand Skoda.
今年上半年,大众集团在西欧和中国销售成长,抵销掉他们在北美洲、南美洲和俄罗斯
市场的衰退。
中国也是大众集团最大的销售市场,VAG预期中国和西欧市场的需求,将能带动大众集团
2016年的全球总销售量会比去年微幅成长,大众集团的销售长Fred Kappler如此表示。
Strong demand in China, Volkswagen's (VW) largest market, and Western Europe
may drive sales beyond last year's total.
“销售量创新高,但利润总额却减少”
大众集团的隐忧就是获利能力逐年下滑,卖越多,却赚越少。
虽然VAG全球汽车销售量创下新高,而且还有保时捷和Audi高级品牌的助阵,
大众集团的销售营业额和净利,双双都比去年衰退。
2016上半年,大众集团的获利率只有4.9%,还输给没有高级品牌的法国PSA标致集团,
PSA上半年获利率达6.8%。
虽然汽车销售量成长,但大众集团销售营业额比去年减少9亿欧元,税前净利也衰退38%
,上半年的税前净利从去年的77亿欧元衰退成48亿欧元。
Volkswagen Group reported that its first-half profit before tax declined
to 4.8 billion euros from 7.7 billion euros. Profit after tax amounted to
3.6 billion euros compared to 5.7 billion euros.
Group's sales revenue fell slightly short of the prior-year figure at 107.9
billion euros compared to 108.8 billion euros. The operating return on sales
in the Group declined to 4.9 percent from 6.3 percent
今年Toyota祸不单行,二月时日本供应商钢铁厂爆炸,造成停工一星期。
四月时的九州大地震,零件供应商厂房严重受损,又让Toyota停工长达好几个星期。
“Toyota的发展策略和大众集团大不同”
相较于大众急于追求汽车销售量,Toyota的目标是专注在“获利能力,提升服务品质
和强化员工技能。”
Increasing volume sales is not the goal for Toyota, which plans to focus on
profitability and improving service quality and workers' skills.
