  • Nine workforce meetings are scheduled from August 25 to 31 over seven days, starting in Wolfsburg, moving to Emden and Zwickau on August 26, and ending in Hannover on August 31.

  • Oliver Blume puts the current operating return on sales at 3.8 percent and is targeting eight to ten percent by 2030, while IG Metall leader Christiane Brenner reportedly considers that goal unrealistic.

  • Blume said Emden, Hannover, Zwickau and the Audi plant in Neckarsulm currently lack competitive production allocations for the 2030s, but no specific plant closures have been decided.

  • Plant closures are not possible with IG Metall anyway.
