Volkswagen sees tensions amid leadership clash - BBC News Mr. Winterkorn has never been a big proponent of EVs; not sure if his position is in jeopardy here but, hope VW/Audi get their EV story going beyond the e-Up/e-Golf and the plugin e-trons.
Another thing with VW is their styling inside and outside hasn't changed in 12 years. Couldn't believe it when I tried out their Golf and Polo they weren't any different inside from the old banger I had lol.
So, Piech failed to garner support to oust Winterkorn, lost the support of shareholder, and has resigned with immediate effect. This is a pretty monumental event, it will be extremely interesting to see what happens to VW now.
