Published 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
The European automotive industry is a fundamental pillar of the European economy, generating substantial value added—specifically, every euro invested by automakers creates 2.6 times the value for the wider economy, exceeding 2.5 times the value generally. The sector's overall contribution to European GDP surpasses €1.7 trillion. It is also deeply integrated into the electric vehicle (EV) supply chain, accounting for 75% of European battery sales and 40% of the European demand for semiconductors.
