Future car projects will be finished in 40 months rather than 54 months, thanks to a 25% decrease in development timelines. Around 4,000 individuals will be re-skilled for new job roles by 2030, with an additional 6,000-8,000 gaining extra training.

The brand will also spend €800 million on Campus Sandkamp over the next five years, which will "raise the bar" in vehicle development.
This major restructuring will include the Scalable Systems Platform (SSP) of Volkswagen, which is a strong platform for the electric era that will supports all Volkswagen models; with Huawei's anticipated cooperation, it will allow the vehicle to completely connect with its ecosystem and provide optimal circumstances for Level 4 autonomous driving.
