Europe Drop-In: The slow agony of Germany’s auto industry

What’s the outlook for struggling German auto manufacturers? How big a threat do Donald Trump and Chinese imports present? What are the macroeconomic implications of this industry’s travails?

Join Chief Europe Economist Andrew Kenningham for this briefing with Senior Europe Economist Franziska Palmas all about her new, in-depth analysis on the future of Germany’s auto sector and how it could shape the country’s economic outlook.

During this 20-minute session, Andrew and Franziska will be answering your questions as they address key issues, including:

  • The European demand outlook and why auto output will continue falling;
  • Whether EU tariffs will be able to halt the onslaught of cheap Chinese EVs;
  • How much the sector’s decline will hurt employment and GDP in the years ahead.
