Volkswagen Lost $6.5 Billion in Q3 on Porsche — and Booked the End of the U.S. ID.4
A €6.4 billion Porsche write-down drove the loss. The report also books the end of U.S. ID.4 production and flags Audi's North American slump and tariffs.

The small electric SUV can now be ordered with a 37-kWh pack: 201 WLTP miles, 90-kW fast charging, and a price €3,000 above the ID. Polo.

The $44,560 range-topper beat the segment in the first season of a New York awards program founded by ex-Good Housekeeping Institute executives — and it’s the one model keeping VW’s U.S. numbers afloat.

Volkswagen is spending more on all 27 U.S. national teams and the federation’s new Georgia training center. The redesigned 2027 Atlas is the vehicle it wants soccer families to notice.

The ID.4 and ID. Buzz lost more sales than the whole brand did. The Tiguan now makes up more than a third of Volkswagen’s U.S. volume.

Volkswagen says it hasn’t found the cause of a battery defect in 22,524 ID.4s. Owners get a charging cap and a warning sticker while a repair is developed.

The ID.4’s replacement gets three powertrains, a 15-inch screen, and a €42,695 starting price in Germany. Volkswagen still won’t say when Americans can buy one.

The electric SUV replaces the ID.4 and ID.5, debuts in early October, and reaches Europe in early 2027. VW hasn't said when U.S. buyers get it.

The KBA puts the VW and Audi campaign at 2.86 million cars; Handelsblatt says 4 million with Skoda and Seat. The U.S. list is still three SUVs, and the Part 573 filing now explains part of why.

The electric van skips a second straight U.S. model year, and the Tourer camper promised for this fall now arrives with the 2028 model.

Six 2027 models get 20 parked-only games, from Tetris to UNO, played with passengers' phones as controllers. After a short trial, access requires VW's paid In-Vehicle Premium plan.

The body control module in the all-new 2025 Tiguan can reset while driving, killing the ignition and, with it, the lights, warning lamps, or backup camera. Dealers will reflash it for free.

The 2018 Tiguan, 2018–2019 Atlas, and 2019–2021 Q3 are affected. VINs are already searchable on NHTSA's site, but owner letters won't go out until November 10.

The near-production EV sends 322 hp to the rear axle — a first for the badge — and edges past the gas Golf GTI Edition 50 as the most powerful GTI yet. Pre-sales start in early 2027.

The Mission Efficiency coupe posted a 0.158 drag coefficient and 6.89 kWh/100 km on a 794-mile drive using the ID. Polo's motor and battery. None of it is headed to the U.S. — yet.

The board signed off on 50,000 job cuts and a halved lineup the same day VW pointed at U.S. pickups. The showroom impact is smaller than the headlines suggest.

The 2027 IQ.DRIVE update lets the Atlas, Golf, Tiguan, and ID. Buzz steer to the shoulder when the driver is unresponsive — and adds turn-signal lane changes.

Volkswagen has confirmed only a study, but the Group's own Future Plan already points at a midsize or larger truck built in the US. Here's what's known and what isn't.

The ID. California Cruise debuted in Düsseldorf at €60,761, but Americans are getting the ID. Buzz Tourer 4Motion instead. Here's how the two compare and what VW still hasn't said.

At Chengdu, Audi sells cars without its rings, BMW's voice assistant runs DeepSeek, and Cadillac's newest hybrid speaks Chinese. None of it is coming to America — by design.
