The death of the soul of the third generation of Porsche-Piech family will inevitably have a heavy impact on the public, the long-term stable balance relationship will be broken, a "dark storm" will be set off in the power field, and new changes will probably take place in the production and marketing system.

Ferdinand piech's whole career is inseparable from the two design pursuits of speed and lightweight. He is a unique excellent engineer who is familiar with the performance and cost of each supplier's accessories. The ABS system, tires, wheels and other spare parts he ordered are either the best or the cheapest in the same price, which is a crucial step for the public with a fiscal deficit of 200-300 million marks for two or three consecutive years.

In addition, after he took office, he drastically rectified productivity, built a highly automated production line in SEAT, Spain, and fired the president and tens of thousands of employees of SEAT in one breath. Although it caused serious dissatisfaction with the trade unions at that time, it greatly improved productivity.

During the 10 years when Piech was in charge of Volkswagen, the "big move" of Volkswagen Group did not stop there.

He also acquired British luxury brand Bentley and Italian sports car company Lamborghini. As a far-sighted autobot, Pierre noticed the environmental protection of cars very early. Volkswagen has made great efforts to build a car with a fuel consumption of only 65,438+0 liters per 100 kilometers. Although this concept car is still parked in the laboratory, Pierre has laid a solid foundation for the future of Volkswagen.

At present, Volkswagen is transforming in a new direction, "slimming" its business, including finding potential buyers for the departments that design engines and power plants, and getting rid of the huge internal parts business.
