VW LCV Global Model Production : 2019-20

Light commercial vehicles are generally profitable and for VW it has been the case also. However, in 2020 production took a tumble, down 28%. So too did profit as it unusually fell into the red. Surely a temporary situation but one that shows in these uncertain times, we can expect the unexpected. 

The Crafter van held up best, with volume down 'just' 20%. The Amarok dropped by almost a half, the impending replacement from Ford will be most welcome. VW moved the small Saveiro pick up from LCVs to passenger cars but I didn't follow suit.
