The Volkswagen brand is replacing its design chief, Jozef Kaban, famous for his retro designs, with Bentley's design boss, Andreas Mindt, according to company sources.
Mindt will take up the post at VW brand on Feb. 1, the sources told European magazine Automobilwoche.
Mindt's successor at Bentley will be Tobias Suehlmann, who currently heads exterior design at the VW Group's ultraluxury brand, people familiar with the matter said. Suehlmann joined Bentley in October 2021, having previously worked at Bugatti, Aston Martin, McLaren and VW brand.
Kaban, who took charge of VW brand design in 2020, will be given a new post within VW Group.
