VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn said the announcement marked "a new
era" for the two firms. "Porsche is a real enrichment for our company's
portfolio," he said. Mr Winterkorn added that the Porsche and Piech families
will be the largest shareholders in the merged firm. Porsche will now
effectively become the 10th brand in the VW family, joining the likes of Audi,
Seat and Skoda. As the economy turndown, GM and some US motor
company become non-dominant in the motor market. Middle level of motor
company is aggressive to merge with other company to gain a market share
in this golden chance. It can be imagined that motor market will be changed in
next 10 year. US may not be the biggest motor company in the world. Japan
and EU will be the next that can control the whole motor market in future.
