Volkswagen said on Wednesday that prosecutors were searching offices at the carmaker's headquarters in Wolfsburg, Germany.

The search of offices of Europe's biggest automotive group coincide with a raid by Munich prosecutors at Volkswagen's (VW) luxury carmaker Audi.

A spokesman for VW declined to give further details.
