Volkswagen To Build Golf In Mexico For North American Market

North American insufferable Volkswagen d-bags fans who proudly reject Mexican made Jettas in favor of German-assembled Golfs will be crying in their beers over news that North American made versions of the MK7 Golf will be built south of the border.

By building Golfs at VW's Puebla plant, the auto maker can rely on additional capacity to supplement their German plants, which are running at full tilt to produce the latest Golf. Mexico is also a convenient location for Volkswagen to help grow sales of the Golf, as part of its plan for 800,000 sales in the U.S.

Jonathan Browning, head of Volkswagen's North American arm, said in a statement that the company was looking to build 75 percent of the cars it sells in North America. Production of the Golf should begin at Puebla in Q1 2014.
