(MENAFN) Volkswagen will launch an all-new Jetta compact car at the Detroit Auto Show on Sunday as it aims to improve sales in the American market and leave behind the emissions scandal that has ruined its reputation over the past few years.
The German automaker is still facing investigations and lawsuits around the world related to revelations that it cheated government emissions tests for diesel-powered vehicles and has already paid $30b in fines and costs for the fraud.
However, the company's global brand sales increased to a record of more than 6m cars in 2017, which indicates that it is repairing the damage with consumers.
CEO of Audi said: "Some of our critics thought the diesel crisis would block our view. Instead we have, undeterred by the crisis or rather fired by it, developed our digitization and electrification strategy."
