September 24, 2015
The head of German luxury sports car maker Porsche, Matthias Mueller, has been picked to succeed Martin Winterkorn as the chief executive of scandal-battered auto giant Volkswagen, the business daily
Handelsblatt reported today.
In an article to be published in its Friday edition, the newspaper said 62-year-old Mueller has been chosen to take the driving seat vacated by Winterkorn yesterday as a consequence of the global pollution cheating scandal that has rocked the automobile sector over the past week.
