VIDEO | Avertisment dur de la Dacia: Renault și Ford pot produce și în altă parte decât România / Mihai Bordeanu: „Am pierdut deja două meciuri”

Mihai Bordeanu, a member of the Concordia Employers' Confederation, warns that Romania's automotive industry could lose 20-25% of its turnover, employees, and production next year if competitiveness issues are not addressed. He highlights the doubling of energy prices since the pandemic and notes that Romania has already lost significant production opportunities, such as the future Dacia electric model being made in Slovenia instead of Romania. Bordeanu emphasizes the strategic importance of the automotive sector, which contributes significantly to exports and GDP, and calls for urgent action to improve competitiveness, including energy costs and labor market flexibility. He stresses the need for a national plan to enhance Romania's economic competitiveness and warns against complacency.
