Leading the increase in passenger car sales is the increasing consumer acceptance of Volkswagen's TDI Clean Diesel technology propelling an increase in new Jetta sales by 144.1% during June. TDI Clean Diesel sales comprised almost a quarter of Volkswagen vehicle sales for the month. Further acceptance of Volkswagen's BlueMotionTechnologies also helped Touareg sales increase by 33.3% with the availability of the 3.0 litre V6 TDI Clean Diesel engine in this SUV model. Entries into new product segments by Volkswagen with the "GTI of Small SUVs", the Tiguan, and its affordable 7-passenger minivan, the Routan, led to the best ever sales months for both models.
In the first half of this year, Volkswagen has already delivered 18,988 new vehicles in Canada, and raised its share of the total vehicle market to 2.6% year-to-date.
Volkswagen sales by model line for the month of June 2009 and full-year 2009 were:
