Pamoja na misuko suko yoote iliyopata Kampuni ya kuunda magari ya Volkwagen yenye makao yake makuu kwenye Mji wa Wolfsburg nchini Ujerumani, imechukuwa nafasi ya kwanza kama Kampuni kubwa kabisa Duniani ya uundaji wa magari Duniani, nafasi iliyokuwa inashikiliwa na Toyota baada ya kumuondoa General Motors (GM), hivyo sasa hivi 1.VW 2.Toyota 3.GM!

Volkswagen has reclaimed the crown from Toyota as the world’s largest carmaker by sales as the German carmaker overcame brand damage from the diesel emissions scandal.
The Japanese car group, which also includes its Daihatsu and Hino subsidiaries, said on Monday that its global sales rose 0.2 per cent to 10.2m vehicles in 2016. That fell short of the 10.3m vehicles sold by VW, which also owns the Audi, Porsche, Skoda and Bentley brands.
The end to Toyota’s four-year reign came as the company faces fresh challenges in the US, where President Donald Trump has criticised the Japanese car industry and Toyota in particular for its investment in Mexico.
The company responded with a promise to invest $10bn in the US over the next five years and announced last week that it would add 400 jobs at its plant in Princeton, Indiana.
Toyota, which also makes the Lexus brand, overtook General Motors in 2008 to become the world’s largest producer of cars. It briefly lost the title in 2011 in the wake of the Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, but regained it the following year.
VW’s attempts to overtake Toyota were hamstrung after its sales were hit by the emissions scandal, which became public in September 2015. Up to 11m vehicles worldwide were fitted with the “defeat devices” to reduce their nitrogen oxide emissions in laboratory tests.
But the company has continued to perform strongly in China, where sales rose 12 per cent to almost 4m vehicles last year.
Analysts say sales in the world’s two largest car markets — the US and China — will continue to be a critical factor as VW tries to maintain its lead over Toyota in 2017.
With US car sales seen to be nearing their peak, Toyota is expected to grapple with a broader slowdown in vehicle demand as well as pressures from the US president to boost spending and manufacturing in the country.
The Japanese carmaker has said it expects global sales to remain flat at 10.2m vehicles this year as the company focuses on steady profits rather than pursuing breakneck expansion of sales.
“The question is how much Toyota can maintain sales in China as the growth rate declines and how much it can hold steady in the US as the market peaks out,” said Masahiro Akita, analyst at Credit Suisse.
VW also faces its own challenges, with sales in China expected to slow after consumers rushed to purchase vehicles at the end of last year before the expected expiration of tax breaks on small cars. Chinese authorities have since decided to extend the tax breaks in 2017, but analysts say that VW and other carmakers are unlikely to match last year’s strong China results.
