保时捷计划联合大众和卡车生产商曼(MAN)和斯堪尼亚(Scania)这些全球汽车制造业的巨头组建新的控股公司来对抗目前的汽车业老大丰田,保时捷股东已经批准了这个计划。保时捷在CEO Wendelin Wiedeking的领导下将负责掌管新的控股公司,这主要是由于它已经拥有大众集团的控股权,这几家公司组成的联合体将超过通用和福特,但不会超过丰田。曼现在已经和斯堪尼亚和大众商用车部门就可能的合并进行会谈,因此这几家集团组成一个汽车生产部门并非难事。Wiedeking预计仍将大幅提升大众的持股比例,他表示,大众目前仍未达到丰田和通用的水平,《汽车新闻》援引他的话说,目前大众的“成本结构仍不合理”。保时捷目前拥有大众31%的股权,这意味着Wiedeking将可以掌控新的控股公司。 Porsche to form new holding company to rival Toyota Porsche shareholders approved plans recently for the creation of a new holding company that would combine Volkswagen and truck manufacturers MAN and Scania to form a global powerhouse to rival industry leader Toyota. Porsche under the guidance of CEO Wendelin Wiedeking will be in charge of the new entity because of its controlling stake in VW, and when combined revenues would top those of GM and Ford but won’t surpass Toyota. MAN is already in talks with Scania and VW Commercial Vehicles over a proposed merger, so it’s not difficult to see the groups join with the carmaking divisions. Wiedeking still sees significant improvement for VW, commenting that the car giant is still not in the same league as Toyota and GM, telling Automotive News reporters that “its cost structures aren’t right yet.” Porsche’s 31% stake in VW means that Wiedeking will direct the new holding company. |
