Vanessa Brown+FollowVW's US Audi Plant Hits a Tariff RoadblockSo, VW wanted to build a shiny new Audi factory in the US, but those pesky tariffs are making it a no-go. Basically, unless the US chills out on import taxes, your dream of a locally made Audi might stay just that—a dream. The drama? VW’s CEO says the cost is just too high, and even talks with the White House didn’t fix it. If you’re car shopping, don’t expect more Audis on American lots anytime soon! #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #VW10Share
Vanessa Brown+FollowWhy Your Next Audi Might Not Be Made in the USAHere’s a coffee break scoop: VW just told the US, “No lower tariffs, no new Audi factory.” That means if you were hoping to see more Audis rolling out of Tennessee, don’t hold your breath. The high import taxes make it too pricey to build here, so VW might take their jobs and investment elsewhere. If you’re eyeing a new Audi, expect fewer US-made options and maybe higher prices until the trade drama cools down. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #VW00Share
Keith Bass+FollowWould You Move for $35K? VW Workers Say NoVW just offered its Dresden factory workers a $35,000 bonus to move 186 miles to Wolfsburg, but the crowd wasn’t impressed—they actually booed! The plant is stopping production of its electric ID.3, but instead of layoffs, most workers get to stay and the site will become a tech innovation hub. If you ever get a big relocation offer, remember: money’s great, but it’s not always enough to pack up your life. #Business #EntrepreneurshipStartup #VW00Share
