Volkswagen Philippines announces pricing for 1st batch of models | TopGear.com.ph

Launching Sept 27 Greenbelt. BGC showroom open on Sept 28.

Definitely not for the lowly-paid employees like me. The pricing's a bit too high as you can get an SUV for the price of a Jetta.

Ooppss....that's not good. The pricing is a bit high so it will be tough for VW to compete against the Japanese or Korean brands, unless they plan to outsell the German brands.

touareg at 4.29M? paksyet, i'd rather get me a LC200 with all the bells and whistles, and at 190k less!

same as before, they priced themselves out.

BMW X5 kasi daw ang katapat. But yeah, an LC200 would be a better car, has more seats and as a Toyota, after sales service won't be a headache.

"As a brand that literally means “People's Car”, VW Philippines will be pricing their models above the top end Japanese brands but lower than the brand's German compatriots such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and even Audi (to which VW cars are technically related)."

Good luck with their strategy.

Di puwede kargahan ng Extreme97 yung TSI engines ng VW. Baka masira.

Partner with Ayala? A good company but also comes with good prices for themselves.

I got some isuzus from the Ayalas. And so far so expensive in their casa services.

The problem with VW is that they are going to enter to the market without any highly desirable OMFG BBQ cars
Basically they have no showstoppers to bring their customers into their dealers or motorshow stands

I mean Peugeot entered here with the RCZ, Ford reentered the market with the slightly subsidized Expedition (it was 1.4M during its time), Subaru with the STI (obviously), Audi with the TT, and at the bottom end of the scale, Kia with the Pride (it brought people to their dealerships, so job done)

Nothing VW is selling here is either desirable or cheap. Not bringing the Beetle/Scirocco/Up will hurt them massively
