Volkswagen Group deliveries rose 6 percent to 864,600 vehicles last month as rebounding demand in Europe and strong sales in China helped offset declines in the United States and South America.

PSA/Peugeot-Citroen says it is stepping up production of transmission units at a plant in Valenciennes, northern France, to meet strong Chinese demand, the French carmaker said.

Volkswagen said global sales of its core brand rose 2 percent in October as falling demand in Europe and the United States was offset by strong gains in China.
