Volkswagen has begun shipping the first units of the Taos from the Puebla plant in Mexico to the United States two months after production for export markets kicked off.
The first batch of small crossovers departed on board the Mediterranean Highway vessel, which is part of the fleet used by the Volkswagen Group, on Friday, destined for different ports nationwide.
“With the departure of the first units of the new Taos to the U.S. market, Volkswagen de Mexico completes one more goal in time, marking the success story of this SUV, despite the challenges in their manufacturing due to the Coronavirus pandemic”, said VW’s Director of Production for the North American Region, Susanne Lehmann. “We estimate that this model will have very good acceptance in the North American market, which recognizes the quality of vehicles made in Mexico by Volkswagen.”

World Athletics Women s Week
To coincide with International Women’s Day on 8 March 2021, World Athletics is delighted to announce the launch of #WeGrowAthletics, a campaign designed to build on the strides the sport has taken towards greater gender equality.
As part of the launch, World Athletics is making a number of pledges to commit to further advance the role of girls and women in athletics in three core areas of the sport – empowering women in leadership positions, breaking with traditions and shining a spotlight on women’s stories across its platforms.
This pledge has been the result of an internal review across World Athletics’ departments and work with key stakeholders and partners to identify areas in which more progress can be made.
