Volkswagen AG's namesake brand will temporarily stop accepting
orders in Germany for plug-in hybrid models due to the shortage of
semiconductors.
The German car maker is seeing strong demand for these vehicles,
which leads to a high order backlog, a spokesman said on Tuesday.
Due to the demand in combination with the restricted supply of
semiconductors, Volkswagen is unable to accept further orders in
Germany to avoid having to extend delivery times, he said.
German business daily Handelsblatt first reported the order
stop, citing chip-supply problems, effects from the war in Ukraine
and uncertainty about future incentives for hybrid cars.
