Volkswagen is in the midst of complex negotiations with labor leaders and management to avoid closing factories in Germany, a first in its history. Initial talks included closing three factories and implementing wage freezes and pay cuts.

The negotiations are ongoing, with market conditions and potential risks influencing decisions.
