Ex-VW Chief Diess Urges Strong Home Market for E-Autos

Herbert Diess believes Germany must become a leading market for premium electric vehicles to revive its automotive industry.

Ex-VW CEO Herbert Diess emphasizes the need for Germany to strengthen its domestic market for premium electric vehicles.
Diess argues that Germany's automotive industry, despite current challenges, can thrive by leveraging its strong home market and infrastructure.
He acknowledges China's dominance in the global electric vehicle market but sees opportunities for Germany in the premium segment.
Diess calls for policies that support fast charging and affordable electricity to enhance Germany's appeal as a leading market for electric vehicles.
Volkswagen and other German automakers face economic pressures, with potential layoffs and factory closures as they adapt to the shift towards electric mobility.
