Ingolstadt (dpa-AFX)-The Audi works council announces hard resistance to a feared billion-dollar savings program at the car manufacturer. “If the company does not give in promptly, there is Rambazamba, if necessary also in the obligation to peace,” said works council chief Jörg Schlagbauer to the “focus”. You will defend yourself against the “list of horror” and prepare yourself for “all eventualities”, said Schlagbauer.

Savings not yet officially

The “list” is about savings of up to 9,000 jobs at VW (VOW) VZ (VW) VZ) subsidiary. The “Handelsblatt” had reported on this at the end of February. The savings plans are also reported to be a whole series of other measures, including the outsourcing of sales in Germany, the shift in the recent tariff increase and the reduction of premiums and participation in success. This is not confirmed by the company. Negotiations of the board are currently underway with the works council.

The works council provides conditions

Among other things, works council chief Schlagbauer wants to ensure that an additional car model is manufactured at the Ingolstadt headquarters to utilize the work. “Without a specific promise for another combustion model, we will not conclude a new fundamental agreement with the company.”

Audi has not only got into trouble because of the economic crisis. In the past few years, several new models have also been late on the market. In 2024, paragraph was collapsed by 12 percent to 1.67 million vehicles. The sales figures for the electrical Audi models also dropped, although the global market for electric cars is growing./Cho/DP/MIS
