BERLIN (Reuters) – Volkswagen (DE:) Group stated that 2021 deliveries will drop 4.5% to 8.9M vehicles. The Group also indicated it believes supply chain bottlenecks will remain volatile for the remainder of the year.

China was the most affected by this decline, with 14.1% less vehicles delivered to customers in China due to supply chain problems and chip shortages.

Fully-electric vehicle deliveries increased 96% over 2020 to 452,900 units.

Global deliveries of battery-electric vehicles accounted for 5.1%, an increase from the 2.5% in 2012. China had more than four times the number of battery-electric vehicle deliveries in 2021.
