In the last couple of years the German automakers completely missed the trend towards EVs had only had a laughable product palette. This also causes them to close a lot of factories in Europe, and that is still happening right now.
But you have to keep in mind that the market for EVs is growing. So, once Tesla closes their factory, Volkswagen & Co will be more than happy to hire those workers.
And of course, with arson attacks on Tesla stuff becoming common over here, the factory might go up in flames soon, anyway.
I would think so. The demand is there, the factories are there, the supply chains are there. So if the European car makers now gain traction in the EV market, it would make sense to just re-cycle existing resources.
