大众汽车集团董事会批准了追加裁员5万人的计划14，使该公司到2030年的总裁员目标达到10万人24。这包括此前已同意的5万人裁员基础上的新增5万个职位23。首席执行官奥利弗·布卢姆表示这一决定发出了"强有力的信号"3。根据集团数据，大众全球员工总数超过65万人1，因此这轮裁员相当于员工总数的约15%2。
重组计划的另一核心内容是关闭或调整德国的四家主要工厂14。这四家工厂分别位于艾姆登、茨维考、汉诺威和内卡苏尔姆14，其长期前景无法保证3。与此同时，公司计划将生产的汽车型号数量减少约50%1。大众面临来自中国低成本竞争对手、美国关税压力以及电动汽车需求疲软的多重挑战13，该公司上半年税后收入下降了30%，中国销售亦受到影响1。
尽管遭到员工代表和地方政府的反对，这项重大重组计划仍获董事会批准1。IG Metall工会主席克里斯蒂亚娜·本纳表示，公司为解决"危机局面"进行了"艰苦谈判"4。这被视为全球汽车工业有史以来规模最大的一次重组2。
Volkswagen's board has approved a major cost-reduction plan featuring 50,000 additional job cuts and the closure of four German plants, bringing the company's total workforce reduction to 100,000 positions by 20301234. The decision, presented by Chief Executive Officer Oliver Blume, represents the largest restructuring in the global automotive industry's history23. The cuts will affect approximately 15 percent of Volkswagen's global workforce and include reductions in management positions1.
The four German facilities facing closure or operational uncertainty are Emden, Zwickau, Hanover, and Neckarsuhlm1234. Beyond workforce reduction, Volkswagen plans to cut its vehicle model lineup by approximately 50 percent12. The company cited excess production capacity of 500,000 vehicles in Europe as a key driver for restructuring1. These measures respond to mounting pressures from Chinese low-cost competitors, U.S. tariffs, and declining profitability13.
In addition to workforce reductions, Volkswagen intends to decrease its number of subsidiaries and holdings by roughly one-third and plans to invest hundreds of billions of dollars in research and development over the coming years3. Despite opposition from employee representatives and local governments, the supervisory board approved the restructuring strategy1. Chief Executive Blume stated the decision sends "a strong signal for the future of the Volkswagen Group,"1 while employee representative Daniela Cavallo characterized the cuts as "necessary for our company to successfully enter the next decade"1.
