Prăbușirea unui gigant. Volkswagen închide patru uzine din Germania şi taie 50.000 de locuri de muncă - Economica.net

Volkswagen has approved a restructuring plan that will significantly reduce its model range and workforce, closing four factories in Germany and cutting around 50,000 jobs. The company faces challenges from Chinese competitors and U.S. tariffs. The plan, proposed by CEO Oliver Blume, aims to streamline operations and increase production volumes for remaining models. Volkswagen currently has excess production capacity of about 500,000 vehicles in Europe and will halt production at the affected factories. The company is exploring alternative uses for these facilities to avoid complete inactivity. The restructuring will likely impact other brands in its portfolio.
