Volkswagen Group (Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft) is a German automobile manufacturing group, currently the third largest automobile maker in the world, and the largest in Europe. In August of 2009, Porsche SE and Volkswagen Group reached an agreement that Volkswagen and Porsche AG would merge in 2011.
Although it operates worldwide, Volkswagen Group's core market is continental Europe. Of its car brands, Volkswagen Passenger Cars is its mainstream marque, and the Group's major subsidiaries also include well-known car marques like Audi, SEAT, Škoda, Lamborghini, Bentley, and Bugatti. The Group also has operations in commercial vehicles, owning Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, along with a controlling stake in Scania AB and a 29.9% stake in MAN SE.
Volkswagen's second-largest market is China where its subsidiary, Volkswagen Group China is by far the largest joint venture automaker.
The Volkswagen Golf is the third bestselling car in the world, selling over 25 million cars through 2006. In 2007 the Volkswagen Group sold 6.19 million automobiles, claiming over 10% of the world passenger car market.
