„Bunăstarea Europei este în pericol”. Industria care a construit prosperitatea continentului pierde teren în fața Chinei

The European automotive industry faces significant challenges, with production down 20-25% since 2017. Chinese competition, high costs, and technological lag threaten the sector's stability, which supports millions of jobs. Major manufacturers like Volkswagen and Jaguar Land Rover are restructuring due to these pressures. The shift in global production to Asia, particularly China, is evident, as it now produces over 60% of vehicles. The EU's share has dropped below 15%, and electric vehicle production is increasingly dominated by Chinese manufacturers. To counter these trends, industry leaders call for a coordinated European strategy to enhance local production and innovation.
