Volkswagen solidified its position as Argentina's top-selling automaker between January and May, registering 32,317 vehicle sales. This figure, however, represents a 27% drop compared to the 44,851 units sold in the same period of the previous year.

To maintain its standing in the competitive Argentine automotive industry, Volkswagen has released its pricing for June. The company has kept prices unchanged from its second May price list, which included discounts of up to 26.3%.

The most affordable Volkswagen model in June is the Saveiro compact pickup, suitable for both work and urban use. Following the Saveiro, the Nivus coupe-style SUV is listed, with the regional compact sedan, the Virtus, in third place. The recently introduced compact SUV, the Tera, and the popular hatchback Polo round out the top five most accessible models in Volkswagen's current Argentine portfolio.
