The dualism Volkswagen-Tesla It has suddenly turned on since the company led by Elon Musk opened its new Gigafactory on the outskirts of Berlin, Germany. Precisely that Germany in which Volkswagen has its roots: the brand led by Herbert Diess fears competition from its US rival, and does not fail to show it to its employees who work in the Wolfsburg headquarters. “I am worried about Wolfsburg“, the CEO of the Volkswagen Group admitted, rekindling the diatribe that has been going on for weeks with the trade unions.
After Diess made it known that “Today’s jobs in 10-20 years they will certainly become less, especially in administration, but also in production “, the response of Daniela Cavallo, leader of the works council, was not long in coming, reiterating: “There is not one employee too many on board at Volkswagen. They cannot negotiate with us ”. The question and answer between the parties then continues, and it does so with increasingly warm tones, especially after the Horse has accused Diess of saying “nonsense things“. However, the CEO of the German group has announced that on the other hand some jobs will be implemented: “I would like your children and grandchildren to be able to count in a safe place at Volkswagen in the future”. But adding on the competition with Tesla: “The next Golf doesn’t have to be Tesla’s and it doesn’t have to come from China.”
