BERLIN - Volkswagen will use proceeds of an initial public offering of its Traton trucks unit to invest in the “internationalization” of the division, Chief Executive Officer Herbert Diess said on Tuesday. Volkswagen on Monday said it would press ahead with a listing of Traton before the 2019 summer break and would invest nearly 1 billion euros in an electric vehicle battery cell plant in Europe.
On the sidelines of VW’s annual general meeting, Diess said no carmaker could manage the transition towards e-mobility on its own and that a charging infrastructure and political support was needed.
