- Mahle CEO Arnd Franz criticizes the EU’s combustion engine restrictions, warning they will cause significant job losses.
- About two-thirds of Mahle’s 28,000 European employees work in combustion-related areas, with limited transitions to new sectors like building cooling.
- Franz projects electric vehicles will hold only half the European market by 2035 and advocates allowing additional CO₂-neutral technologies.
- The company’s revenue fell to €11.3 billion in 2025, with 3,500 global job cuts including 600 in Germany, and more reductions planned.
If Europe truly wants to achieve its climate goals and regain ground in global competition, technologies beyond battery-electric vehicles must be allowed to a sufficient extent.— Arnd Franz, Mahle CEO, in an interview about the EU proposal for combustion engines and its implications
