VW Exec Dreams of More SUVs and the Return of the Phaeton in U.S. Lineup

To meet its ambitious goal of reaching 800,000 annual sales in the United States by 2018, up from 324,402 deliveries last year, Volkswagen might need a little help through the introduction of new models and variants.

True to its mantra of leaving no segment of the car market unattended, Volkswagen is now pursuing the presentation of mid-size SUV for North America. Such a model would be about the same size as the Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK.
