Volvo lays off workers in Russia and Ford in the US

Swedish Volvo is reducing the workforce at the brand’s Russian representative office and American Ford, which has already shut down factories in the United States, has launched a global restructuring program. How this will affect consumers, the AvtoVzglyad portal found out.

Ford froze its engineering sites due to a total component shortage, while company representatives report a serious reduction in their workforce. At the same time, the Americans say that they will leave competent personnel for future developments in the electric vehicle segment. Technical centers and car dealers will continue to operate.

As for the Swedes, Volvo is “cutting” staff in the Russian representative office to a minimum, although dealers will continue to meet all warranty and after-sales obligations for customer service, according to the company.

Recall that the first car brand that completely left Russia was the overseas General Motors. Dealers promptly clean up the leftovers of Cadillac and Chevrolet and offer hefty discounts.
