I wouldn't even say VW is the most aggressive at talking about making EVs, as Tesla talks about it much more. They sold 164 EVs in all of the US and are at 17th place with their sole vehicle; the e-Golf.
Perhaps they will become an EV powerhouse, but it's all talk for the moment, along with some court negotiated EV infrastructure building. I expect a company to SAY whatever it takes to get back into the good graces of their customers/government. It remains to be seen what they actually DO.
It's like Tesla saying they will build a $35k car; lots of talk, no evidence of making it happen. If they aren't making it now with federal subsidies still available, there's little chance they will make it happen in the future.
