German sales of Volkswagen in September fell by more than 18 percent, only 37 percent in Europe. The Financial Times reported. At the same time, the group warned that further fluctuations could be observed for the rest of the year. The group also includes Škoda Auto, Seat, Audi or Porsche next to Volkswagen.
The automaker is already facing a number of lawsuits in which investors claim that Volkswagen's management has not timely informed about fraud around emissions measurements.

In Europe, the group delivered 256,700 vehicles last month, with a total of 827,700.
According to Volkswagen, the fall is due to the transition to new emission testing rules. For this reason, he believes that slumps and fluctuations will occur in the rest of the last quarter.
Under the new rules, testing should be more responsive to real-world car operation. However, automakers are having difficulty getting new certification on time.
BMW was better prepared
Competitive car maker BMW saw a 0.8 percent fall in sales, which, according to the Financial Times, shows that the new rules were better prepared for knowledge than Volkswagen.
Volkswagen has warned in the past that the transition to the new system will negatively affect its economic performance.
