Not just yet.....

For VW, the agreement is another step in its plan to overtake Toyota as the world's biggest automaker by 2018.

"Eight to 10 years from now, we want to become number one in the world, and I believe that we'll be able to accelerate that into happening with cooperation with Suzuki," Winterkorn said.

Depends on how you measure it. Total cars sold? Cars sold per year? Per quarter? Per month? Per decade? Profits per car? Profits total? etc.
