Autohaus Dürkop GmbH

What Autohaus Dürkop GmbH does

Autohaus Dürkop GmbH is a privately held Volkswagen passenger car dealership operating from a single location at Alte Rostocker Straße 9 in Stralsund, northern Germany. The company sells new and certified pre-owned Volkswagen vehicles, including the full ID. electric family (ID. Cross, ID.3 Neo, ID. Polo), SUVs (T-Roc), compact cars (Polo), and crossovers (Taigo), and supports these sales with a full-service authorized workshop, genuine parts and accessories, and a fleet/business customer program. The dealership also offers Volkswagen Financial Services products including vehicle financing, leasing, insurance, and extended warranties, acting as a one-stop retail channel for the Volkswagen brand in its local market.

The business model is a classic franchise automotive retail operation: front-end gross profit on new and used vehicle sales, back-end gross profit on parts and service work, and finance-and-insurance (F&I) income generated through Volkswagen Financial Services. The dealership employs roughly 16 staff split across sales (new and used, including a dedicated commercial vehicle advisor), service advisory, workshop technicians, parts, and administration, with a separate fleet account manager (Großkundenberater) handling business customers. Customer-facing technology is light and brand-supplied: a "Digital Work Order Extension" feature that shares photos or videos of additional required work for digital approval, automated service appointment scheduling through the myVolkswagen platform, and integration with Volkswagen's dealer finder. The dealership carries a 4.8/5 rating based on 260 reviews on the Volkswagen dealer portal, indicating strong local customer satisfaction relative to typical franchise benchmarks.

Revenue is not publicly disclosed. Distribution is purely physical and local, with online channels limited to lead-capture forms for test drives, quotes, and service appointments. The company is led by two Managing Directors (Geschäftsführer), Holger Neu and Sven Artic, and holds a 2026 AH-Zertifizierung from Volkswagen Financial Services validating advisory competence in financing, leasing, insurance, and services. There is no indication of outside investors, parent-company ownership, or multi-site operations.
