(CercleFinance.com) – The group announces the start of series production of the new Golf from the assembly line at the Wolfsburg factory
Production of the first car of the eighth generation of the model began on the assembly line in Hall 12. It was carried out almost 50 years after the very first production Golf was built in Wolfsburg.
More than half of the approximately 37 million models of this vehicle sold to date – an average of 400,000 units per year – were built at the Wolfsburg plant.
This includes the ‘classic’ Golf, now in its eighth generation, as well as various derivatives such as the Golf Variant and Golf Sportsvan, and a wide range of models.
‘The Golf has been at the heart of the Volkswagen brand for half a century. The Golf has constantly adapted to customer needs, becoming a global bestseller – made in Wolfsburg,’ said Thomas Schäfer, CEO of Volkswagen Passenger Cars.
‘The factory also celebrated the 48 millionth vehicle rolling off the assembly line; no other automobile factory in the world has built as many vehicles as the Wolfsburg factory’.
