Are we witnessing the collapse of a European powerhouse? Europe’s car manufacturing industry, once a symbol of innovation and economic strength, is facing challenges that threaten its very foundation. Given mass layoffs and factory closures, some wonder if the automotive sector will survive the EU’s coming “energy transition” to alternative fuels. In this documentary, Brussels Signal reporters talk to industry lobbyists, car salesmen, politicians and academics in an attempt to understand where the industry is going and whether the EU has made policy mistakes.
