VW never stood for luxury but a car for the masses. Over the years, they've established themselves as a somewhat "elevated mainstream manufacturer" meaning that they're slightly above other mainstreamers like Toyota, Nissan etc. in terms of target market (more expensive).

VW should continue what it does best. Design some of the best-looking and fun-to-drive mainstreamers in its segment. Leave the luxury market to Audi.
