Volkswagen has delayed the production version of the sporty BlueSport concept, one of the stars of the 2009 Detroit Motor Show.
Speaking to journalists on a recent Volkswagen event in Australia an insider confirmed the firm was struggling to make a financial case for the BlueSport because of the global economic crisis.
'It is a niche product,' the insider told us, 'and especially in crisis times like this it will be a challenge to come up with a volume we could require to earn money with it'.
