BERLIN (Reuters) - Volkswagen intends to sell up to 11 million shares in commercial vehicle manufacturer Traton, the German carmaker said on Tuesday, representing up to a 2.2% stake worth about 391 million euros ($427.87 million) at Tuesday's closing price.

"The transaction aims to enhance the free float and trading liquidity of Traton shares, while Volkswagen Group intends to remain a committed and responsible shareholder," Volkswagen said in its statement.

Volkswagen owns almost 90% of Traton.
