Volkswagen AG, long associated with convenient cars for the masses, is positioning itself for an era when the automobile fulfills a bigger role than just moving people around. Volkswagen is looking to enable its cars to send and receive data as well as drive on their own, the Wolfsburg, Germany-based company said in a statement Monday. The German manufacturer also plans to roll out 20 electric cars and plug-in hybrids by 2020, ranging from compacts to upscale sedans like the Phaeton, it said.
