Volkswagen has been trying to opt for a less centralised corporate structure and become more agile. The auto major is trying to amp its game with its goals in electric mobility to tackle Tesla. It is already in the process of strengthening its ID range and the all-electric Porsche Taycan is also doing well for the sportscar brand. However, the valuation is still being shadowed by Tesla.
