VW is developing cars tailored to Chinese drivers — vehicles that will likely never be seen on European roads, though they may make their way to markets in the Middle East and Southeast Asia.

Volkswagen is making a major bet in China, the largest and one of the most cutthroat auto markets in the world. The German carmaker, which once dominated the market with a more than 50% share, has invested 3 billion euros ($3.5 billion) in a sprawling research and development center — its largest outside its home country — in Hefei, a low-key central China city of 10 million people. It’s a sea change from how foreign automakers operated in China for decades by making cars they developed overseas, sharing their technology with local partners.

Audi is consistently continuing its largest product initiative in China to date, demonstrating the brand’s latest progress through its two-brand and two-partner strategy, and reaffirming a long-term commitment to its most important global market. The carmaker has already launched five new market-specific models from local production in the second half of 2025 alone. The company is relying on a differentiated product portfolio of attractive electric cars and highly efficient combustion-engine vehicles. At the auto show in Guangzhou in southern China, Audi and its two partners, FAW and SAIC, are showcasing numerous models that are specifically designed to meet the needs of Chinese customers.
