Volkswagen Considers Selling Ducati as Part of Portfolio Review
Volkswagen is reportedly considering selling its motorcycle brand Ducati as part of a broader evaluation of its business holdings. According to Bloomberg, citing Audi CEO Gernot Döllner, approximately 600 out of Volkswagen’s 2,000 businesses are currently under review. The potential sale reflects the company's strategic shift and focus on core operations amid evolving market conditions. Ducati has long been a premium brand within Volkswagen's portfolio but is not central to its automotive strategy. A decision to divest could signal Volkswagen's intent to streamline assets, particularly as it navigates challenges in electrification and global supply chain disruptions.
