On 28 November, Rupert Stadler, CEO of Germany’s automaker, Audi, announced an extension to an agreement that will secure the jobs of 60,000 German employees until 2025. The CEO also announced a series of investments across the company’s range of electric cars. Following discussions with its central Works Council it was decided that from 2021 two wholly electric SUV models would be manufactured at the Ingolstadt facility. The company also announced twenty or so new models until 2025, at least ten of which will be entirely electric. “Developing electric vehicle production capabilities is at the heart of this agreement, which was negotiated with the workers representatives,” explained Mr. Stadler. The announcement comes at a time when the automaker has just launched a major further training campaign called ‘data.camp’ that is designed to prepare its workers for the demands of electric vehicle production and digitalization.
