The German carmaker Volkswagen has announced a few leadership changes in its design departments. One of them concerns Slovak Jozef Kabaň.
Starting in July 2020, he will take over the design section at the Volkswagen Passenger Cars brand from Klaus Bischoff, who has managed the section for 12 years. Bischoff will become the new head of group design instead.
