Will my VW be cheaper?

While Volkswagen is cutting jobs and factories, this is more about long term strategy than immediate price drops. The aim is to make the company more efficient and competitive, especially against new rivals. Any savings are likely to be reinvested or used to maintain profit margins, rather than passed directly to you as lower car prices.
