A spokesman for Germany’s Volkswagen Group said that the Volkswagen Group’s Porsche plant in Leipzig, Germany, began to shut down on the afternoon of March 2 and is expected to continue at least until next weekend, with about 2,500 employees on standby. The day before, the Volkswagen Group announced that a major production site in Wolfsburg, Germany<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> would have to be shut down due to the impact on the supply chain. In addition, Volkswagen’s production plant in Saxony, Germany, has encountered difficulties with cable shortages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On March 1, a BMW Group spokesman revealed that due to supply delays, production at BMW’s plants in Germany and elsewhere in Europe will be affected. It is reported that the automotive wiring harness used by BMW<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a> is purchased from western Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to German car companies, Japan’s Mitsubishi Motors and France’s Renault have also announced that they may partially suspend car production and sales in Russia. Citing data from Citibank, Reuters reported that Renault is one of the Western automakers with the most contacts with Russia<\/strong><\/u><\/strong><\/a>, with 8% of its core profits coming from Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The production of several important metals was also affected.

The Associated Press reported on March 2 that it is “impossible” for supply chains to catch up with global producer demand right now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
