Volkswagen is in advanced discussions with DaimlerChrysler about selling a
large people carrier built in a Chrysler factory in the US, in the second
co-operation between the two German carmakers.
The move would help VW fill a gap in its product line-up after abandoning
plans for an updated version of its 1960s classic Microbus. It is unlikely
that VW would attract enough customers to justify developing and building
its own model from scratch. It would also be positive for Chrysler, helping
increase the utilisation of its people-carrier factories in the US and
Canada, potentially boosting profits.
