The German government welcomed a restructuring agreement between VW's board and employees. The carmaker is under massive pressure from US tariffs, falling sales…

When I was young, I wanted a Benz/Beamer so badly!! They were so COOL looking and reliable. Now having worked with car mechanics...those desires have left me a LONG time ago. I don't even want to touch 'em! I stayed with Toyota/Lexus and NEVER looked back. This is VW's LAST chance. F* this one up and it's GG. ICE engines are OUT. This is life & death for VW.
I think what Germany can do is to limit Chinese cars in their country
I have a clear memory about my last and final experience with VW. I started with a used bug in the 70’s and ended with a 2014 TDI Tuareg. I had 7 VW’s and an Audi in between. I’m very sorry about the people who are affected, but the TDI experience cut deep.
Tesla kan es!
It's do or die..
Every VW since the Beetle has been a rip off with BS marketing and planned obsolescence none of which were the 100,000 ex employees fault.
You saw the easy profits, but not the eventual danger. Now, you are paying for it. No sympathy. 😑
I mean, Toyota has half the number of employees as Volkswagen and sells way more. Seems like a no-brainer.
Cars
Ya... The idea was everyone around the world with hybrids....cara and bus too

Not China doing capitalism better than the west, those VW plants will soon be making BYDs with cheap foreign labor 😂
Han L EV: Official guide price of 219,800–279,800 yuan.<br>Why would I buy a Volkswagen?
The employees voted for this?? Another 50,000 jobs lost??
It's surprising that semi-socialist German government won't subsidise Volkswagen to preserve those job places.. Mf96
I have owned two generations of the Magotan. However, for my next car, I will choose the BYD Han. Volkswagen has failed to keep up with the market, especially in China. Volkswagen doesn't know what kind of cars people want; it has forgotten the meaning of its own name.
Sie sollen Militär Ausrüstung und laster bauen
Let me rephrase: We believe we will not exist in next 20-30 years so yeah
VW has twice of employees of Toyota says it all. This cut will not save the company longterm. Just a stay of the inevitable.
better change your city name to “new Detroit”
When a government doesn't support business this the result. Can't compete with china. Lower taxes, lower regulations and make the business cheaper to run allow lower car prices.
Same old same old Expensive Workforce and Owners and Share holders cant make Fortune on the back of Workers. You cant compete with Overseas Cheap labor, and Instead of Subsidizing the Factories lets spend that money on Illegal Immigrants.
Herbert Diess saw it coming. He said so. He got fired.
This is what you get when you think you are post energy society.
Why not repurpose some of the factories for weapons manufacturing for furture water wars?

그동안 중국에서 꿀 많이 빨았잖아 세상에 공짜가 어디 있더냐 독일 니들은 중국을 몰라도 너무 몰라 동아시아를 연구하는 학자나 전문가들도 많을 텐데 어찌 그리 근시안적이었을까 아시아에 대해서 너무 몰라 처음부터 다시 열심히 제대로 공부혀. 계란을 한 바구니에 담으면 위험하다는 건 주식 시장의 불문율인데 상품 시장은 중국에 에너지 시장은 러시아에 올인했으니 지금 양쪽에서 당하는 게지.

The golden days of the auto industry are long gone.
We’re seeing the Chinese EV onslaught in Australia. Our market is small, but it’s a telling preview of what’s coming globally. BYD has rapidly become a major player, in a very short period of time, offering impressive technology and features at prices that challenge traditional brands. Consumers are increasingly asking why they should pay a huge premium for a German or Japanese badge.
best regards from Russia. LOL.
Does Germany going to survive to the CCP camps?
Far too expensive cars, they destroyed themselves.
It's very sad, but it's time to cut fossil fuels. Renewables moving forward.
VW needs reengineering their company to survive in global car competition.
476 AD: A “historic change” for the Roman Empire.
Let's not talk about 35 hour work week, maternity and paternity leaves, high vacation days, high wages, only company is to be blamed.<br><br>Fire all upper management making over 100k, make workers work 45 hours for same pay to bring cost down.<br>The find more solutions.
Not one mention of stopping the climate nonsense
This is so terrible. So many jobs gone from the communities. We need less billionaires and more distribution of wealth.
EVs and allowing low cost labor competition as ruined car manufacturing in germany and many other places. It was completely avoidable but seems taboo to admit.
“Historic Change” is a polite way of saying: Collapse !
America is currently 40 trillion in debt. Which will not be repaid if all the wealth of America is sold. At the time of the election, Tempo said, "Elect me and I will pay off all of America's debt." The first time he came to power, he borrowed 8 trillion dollars. After taking power for the 2nd time, Tempu has taken more 10 trillion usd loans and received a total of 18 trillion zhan. Which has already been spent due to the war. Which America is now on the road to bankruptcy. Tempu took the largest loan in American history. From 2035 America will have to pay 2 trillion usd per year in interest only debt. Already, various countries that were buying American treasury bonds are taking money back to America. Various countries, including the Netherlands, which had kept American gold, have taken it back. Because now no country can trust America. America can be declared bankrupt at any time. Taking back the gold will cause the US dollar to fall in value. China has opened a bank called Shanghai Bank, now many countries have started keeping gold and money in this bank. Which is most sad and terrible for America. Tempo has put America in a debt trap. No one can get America out of this debt, America's downfall is certain
it's so wierd that all the 'blame' is placed on extrinsic factors but there is no mention of internal introspection; absolutely no chance of any mismanagement or that leadership ignored signs of competition? <br>All the data and analysis that was probably performed for the business to in absolutely no way predict this situation?
Europeans plan to never buy VW again
Honestly European has zero chance individually, in competing against giants like the US and China.<br><br>Even the biggest economy in Europe Germany have a zero chance to stand between the two giants.<br><br>It is only through a United European Federation one entity, one set of rules that there is a chance for European to stand as a formidable giant between the other giants and play the game with its own rules.
China 💪🇨🇳
WE ARE COOKED ;) time for Germans to pack the bags and MOVE
