Volkswagen Up! delayed; Will Indian operations also get affected?

VW_UpVW Up! to be manufactured in India at Chakan, now faced with delays?

We got to know that the Volkswagen Up! mini car will be delayed due to some internal problems in the VW Group. They say that the Up! will now be produced starting March 2011 and only by late 2011 will the cars reach showrooms.

Does this mean Up! production in India will also begin in 2011? What happens to the Up-based Skoda small car then? Is that delayed as well?

The dispute is between Skoda and VW, but additional details were not available.

    Oh that is such a disappointing news! But I don’t think there is any delay in the launch of VW Polo?
