Herndon (dpa) - Volkswagen significantly increased its sales on the US market in the fourth quarter, but overall the 2020 corona crisis resulted in a significant decline.

In the three months to the end of December, the company brought 94,330 cars with the VW logo to customers on Tuesday, eleven percent more than in the previous year.

The SUV segment with the coveted Atlas model boosted sales strongly, while the demand for smaller vehicles weakened.

Overall, business suffered significantly from the pandemic in the past calendar year - with 325,784 cars sold, sales fell by ten percent compared to the previous year.
