Volkswagen (DE0007664039) enters the middle of the week with a clear analyst stance on the preferred shares that trade under the ticker VOW3 on Xetra. The automaker remains a heavyweight in the DAX, and fresh consensus figures underline how research houses position the stock.
What Barclays and others say
On 23 June 2026, Barclays reiterated its positive view on Volkswagen, maintaining an Overweight rating on the preferred shares while trimming the price target to 120 euros, according to a MarketScreener summary of the Barclays update. The British investment bank continues to see value in the stock even after adjusting its expectations.
The Barclays stance aligns with a broader pattern of cautious optimism in the analyst community, where several major houses keep Buy or Overweight ratings on European volume carmakers despite sector headwinds from Chinese competition and electrification costs, as reflected in recent Reuters coverage of the European auto sector. Volkswagen sits at the center of this debate as one of the region’s largest manufacturers.
Consensus picture for the preferred shares
Consensus data compiled by MarketScreener show that a majority of analysts currently rate Volkswagen preferred shares as Buy or equivalent, with a smaller group on Hold and only a few Sell recommendations, based on the latest aggregated overview for ticker VOW3 on Xetra. The average 12?month price target clusters in a triple?digit euro range, offering upside versus recent trading levels on the German exchange, according to the same MarketScreener consensus page.
These consensus figures come against a backdrop where the European autos and parts sector index recently touched its lowest level since March 2026 as investors weighed Chinese competition and EV margin pressure, per the sector piece from Reuters on European carmakers and competition from China. Within this sector framework, Volkswagen’s preferred shares are benchmarked not only against German peers like BMW and Mercedes?Benz but also against global rivals such as Tesla and leading Chinese manufacturers.
