Volkswagen produces 10-millionth car - Limited Edition Beetle GSR in Puebla, Mexico

Volkswagen celebrated the production of 10-million cars at its Volkswagen de Mexico manufacturing facility in Puebla, Mexico. The 10-millionth car was a Volkswagen Beetle GSR, a limited edition,
1970s-inspired Beetle that goes on sale in the United States this month.

"This is an important milestone and symbol of Volkswagen's long-term commitment to the North American market," said Jonathan Browning, President of Volkswagen of America, Inc. "It's only fitting that the milestone car is a Beetle in light of this being the 75th anniversary of the car. Puebla has been manufacturing quality Beetles and other Volkswagens for the United States for nearly 50 years, and continues to play a key role in our growth strategy."
