Șeful Volkswagen cere UE condiții pentru restructurare, avertizând asupra concurenței tot mai mari din China • Newsweek România

Volkswagen's CEO, Oliver Blume, urged the EU to create conditions for the company's restructuring amid increasing competition from Chinese automakers. He emphasized the need for a competitive business environment and fair regulations, particularly advocating for 'Made in Europe' rules to boost local production. As Volkswagen undergoes significant transformation, including potential factory closures and job cuts, it aims to accelerate the development of affordable electric vehicles. The company remains the leading European automaker but faces growing pressure from Chinese brands like BYD and Leapmotor, which are expanding aggressively in Europe. Blume's call for stronger EU trade policies reflects the industry's concerns over the competitive threat posed by Chinese manufacturers.
