$7 billion in North America over the next five years in its quest to sell more than 1 million Volkswagen and Audi vehicles in the U.S. by 2018.Winterkorn would not say where the SUV would be built, but its plant in Chattanooga, Tenn., is under consideration.
VW makes the Passat sedan
in Chattanooga, where the UAW has been working to organize about 2,000 workers. Management has said it would not stand in the way of a union vote.Tonight Winterkorn said the decision on where to make the SUV is not related to whether or not the Tennessee plant becomes unionized.
