Profitul Volkswagen s-a prăbușit cu 33% în trimestrul al doilea

Volkswagen reported a net profit of €1.54 billion in Q2 2026, down 32.9% from last year, primarily due to declining sales in China. Operational profit fell to €3.5 billion, while revenues slightly increased to €82.4 billion, surpassing analyst expectations. Vehicle deliveries dropped nearly 9%, with a significant decline in China. CEO Oliver Blume noted ongoing challenges in the auto industry, including tariffs and geopolitical tensions. The company's restructuring plan faces opposition, and Volkswagen aims to cut 50,000 jobs in Germany by 2030. The group revised its 2026 revenue growth forecast down to a potential decline of 3%.
