FRANKFURT--Volkswagen AG said both group and brand sales rose on the year in January, from a year earlier, supported by demand in China and western Europe, as sales in Russia and Brazil plunged.
Group sales were up 3.7% in January, while brand sales rose 2.8% from the year-earlier month.
The group was bolstered by a 24% rise in demand for its Porsche brand, and a 21% rise in demand for MAN vehicles, Volkswagen said. All brands registered rises during the month, compared with January 2015.
A fall in demand in Russia, down nearly 30%, and in Brazil, down 39%, was offset by a 14% rise in China and a 2.9% increase in western Europe. Demand in the U.S. fell 7% from a year earlier.
The company is coping with the fallout of an emissions-cheating scandal that erupted in September.
Earlier this month, Volkswagen postponed the release of its 2015 earnings figures and its annual shareholders' meeting.
Ето защо продължаващ спад на икономиката в Китай би се отразил много неблагоприятно на германската икономика и ДАКС.
После да няма това-онова, защо и как.
