Volkswagen equities indicate potential vulnerability

In the ever-evolving world of automotive manufacturing, Volkswagen AG finds itself at a crossroads. Rumors suggest a possible relocation of Audi production to the USA, but the final decision remains uncertain.

The future of production at the Volkswagen plant in Zwickau and the production of Audi models from 2030 is under consideration as part of Volkswagen AG's corporate planning and restructuring decisions. Discussions are ongoing, with no definitive final decision publicly confirmed yet.

Contrary to initial announcements, Volkswagen has extended the production of the ID.3 at the Saxon site in Zwickau. The second production line for the Cupra Born will also remain at the Zwickau site. However, from 2027, only the Audi models Q4 e-tron and Q4 e-tron Sportback will be produced there.

Initially, the production of VW models ID.3, ID.4, ID.5, and the Cupra Born were intended to move from Zwickau to Wolfsburg and Emden. The final decision on plant allocation and model shifts will be made in the VW planning round in November.

The uncertainty stems from 'open production questions' for new electric models like ID.Roc and ID.Golf. This ambiguity is causing concern in Volkswagen's electric offensive, with the ID.Buzz production in Hannover temporarily interrupted due to decreasing demand for light commercial vehicles and slower-than-expected E-car acceptance.

Investors are reacting nervously to the repeated changes in plans at Volkswagen. The preferred shares of Volkswagen fell by more than one percent in XETRA trading and temporarily slipped to 97.88 euros.
