"So far, Volkswagen had planned to achieve a capacity of one million electric cars per year by 2023. VW works council chairman Osterloh indicated in an interview with Welt am Sonntag that the Dax group could reach its goal faster: "If Tesla builds three factories in which you can build between 300,000 and 500,000 cars, then we're talking about a number of units between 900,000 and 1.5 million, "he said of the California-based manufacturer of electric cars. "We want to achieve that in 2023, probably sooner," added Osterloh."
