Audi becomes a saving model: one billion euros should go!

Ingolstadt, Deutschland - The situation at Audi, the VW subsidiary, is tense! Gernot Döllner, the new head of Audi, plans to reduce personnel costs annually by incredible one billion euros. This reports the Handelsblatt , which refers to internal information. In addition, Döllner also wants to reduce material costs by up to eight billion euros by 2030 in order to stabilize the financial situation of the brand. The restructuring process is intended to help Audi again after the profit margin was less than five percent. In order to achieve double -digit margins again, a strict savings plan is necessary, even if the target of up to 14 percent now seems unrealistic.

However, Audi and the works council faces challenging negotiations on these savings. The entire works council Jörg Schlagbauer has already set up clear conditions: the employment security must be extended beyond 2029, and the current collective agreements must be observed. Furthermore, Audi discusses the production of a new combustion model in Ingolstadt, although the original plan is to be used that no combustion engineer is no longer off the assumer in the main production by 2030. This crazy tactical game shows how complex the current developments at Audi are. The plans for "flattening of the start -up curve in electromobility" are currently being discussed, report insiders and thus open the uncertainties of the brand, as from the article of Cash .
