Victory! Your pressure has made VW commit to making greener cars

Amazing! You made VW commit to making greener cars!

Hi Robin,

I can’t believe it - you’ve scored another amazing victory!

After nearly two years of campaigning by more than 526,000 of you across the planet, VW has turned away from the Dark Side and committed to making its cars cleaner and more efficient.

This means VW will also meet strong European CO2 reduction targets.

This is big, because using less oil means less pollution, less impact on the climate and less pressure on vulnerable places like the Arctic.

This victory couldn't have happened without you. Before we started this campaign, VW said it would be completely impossible to meet the emissions targets needed to tackle climate change. And yet it has now agreed to do exactly that.

This is a direct result of your pressure - you changed Europe’s biggest car company for the better. VW saw which way the wind was blowing and bowed to your pressure. I can’t begin to tell you how proud I am of everything you’ve done.

And I'll be in touch very soon about how we can take this further, to every other car maker in Europe.

Let’s go!
