Volkswagen expands aftermarket parts push for older cars in Poland

Volkswagen is scaling up its spare-parts distribution for vehicles up to 15 years old, anchored by a new hub in Komorniki, Poland, to capture a share of the aftermarket from independent suppliers. The move targets roughly 2.3 million VW Group cars on Polish roads, signaling a strategic shift toward the lucrative older-vehicle segment. Competitive impact on independent parts makers is uncertain but could pressure their margins.
