    Can Volkswagen Save Itself? | Wall Street Journal & Former BMW Executive Explain Why This Time Is Different | At The Wheel #27

    Volkswagen has approved one of the largest restructurings in automotive history. The question isn’t whether it’s significant. The question is whether it came too late. In this special edition of At The Wheel, Tu Le is joined by Stephen Wilmot, automotive reporter for The Wall Street Journal, and Daniel Kirchert, former BMW executive, Byton co-founder, and CEO of Flynt, to unpack Volkswagen’s historic restructuring—and what it means for Europe’s automotive future. This isn’t just a discussion about Volkswagen. It’s a conversation about whether Europe’s automotive industry can remain globally competitive as Chinese automakers continue expanding at unprecedented speed. 🇨🇳 China’s Competitive Advantage Why did China’s automotive industry move so far ahead? The panel discusses: * Software-defined vehicles * AI and autonomous driving * Two-year product development cycles * Lower development costs * The rise of XPeng, BYD, Xiaomi and other Chinese brands 🇩🇪 Volkswagen’s Moment of Truth The discussion breaks down: * Factory closures * Workforce reductions * Product consolidation * Why China’s collapse in profitability changed everything * Whether Volkswagen can successfully reinvent itself 🚗 Can Legacy Automakers Change Fast Enough?

Or have tariffs and trade policy simply delayed that confrontation? 🌎 The New Automotive World Order * Chinese automakers expanding globally * USMCA uncertainty * Technology partnerships * AI, software and batteries * Why legacy automakers may need to change faster than ever before This isn’t simply a conversation about Volkswagen.
