VW Halts Emden Production Friday as Storm Elli Approaches

The company advanced a planned off-day to protect staff.

Overview

  • Volkswagen will cancel both shifts at its Emden plant on Friday, pausing production for one day due to the forecast storm.
  • An originally scheduled late-January rest day was moved forward to reduce weather-related risks to employees and supply chains.
  • Production at other VW locations is expected to proceed as normal for now, including the Wolfsburg main plant.
  • The Emden facility manufactures the ID.4 and ID.7 electric models.
  • Airports in Bremen and Hannover have winter services on standby, with possible weekend flight effects still uncertain.
