Yep, Volkswagen is getting it's very own performance division just like the big boys. At least that's what a Volkswagen executive told Inside Line at a press event recently.
"BMW has its M, Mercedes has AMG, and our sibling Audi has Quattro. This new R division will be our Quattro," the executive said.
The new division will be an expansion of the current Volkswagen Individual group already in Europe.
