Industria auto germană se clatină. Volkswagen, BMW și Mercedes reduc mii de locuri de muncă

The German automotive industry faces significant challenges, with major companies like Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz planning substantial job cuts due to increasing competition from China. Volkswagen aims to reduce around 100,000 jobs, while BMW and Mercedes-Benz are also restructuring, impacting thousands of employees. The decline in sales, particularly in China, has raised concerns about the industry's future and potential deindustrialization in Germany. European brands are losing their historical advantages in technology and production, as Chinese manufacturers rapidly innovate and offer competitive pricing. The EU's tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles may further complicate the situation.
