Volkswagen to resume production gradually next week New Corona April 17 7:06
Volkswagen, a German car manufacturer, has announced plans to gradually resume operations next week at a plant that has ceased production due to the spread of the new coronavirus.
According to the announcement, it will start production in some plants in Germany and Slovakia next week, and after the 27th of this month, other plants in Germany and plants in Portugal, Spain, Russia and the United States will be restarted.
After that, we plan to start production at plants in South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, etc.
This is due to the fact that the German government announced that it will gradually relax measures related to curfew from next week.
Volkswagen says, "The environment for resuming production in stages has been established, but we will prioritize employee infection control measures and proceed while observing the situation of parts procurement and sales." In Europe, Toyota Motors and Daimler are planning to resume operations soon, but full-scale production is likely to take some time.
