Caption: Volkswagen Keeps Production Running But Warns Of Chip Supply Risks. Volkswagen says vehicle production at its German factories will continue next week, despite growing concerns over a global chip supply dispute. The carmaker confirmed on Thursday that operations remain unaffected for now, even as tensions mount over Dutch chipmaker Nexperia whose supply issues have put pressure on the wider auto industry. A Volkswagen spokesperson said the shortage at Nexperia has “for the time being, no impact on production” but warned that short-term disruptions across the company’s production network “cannot be ruled out.” The automaker added that it’s staying in close contact with suppliers while exploring alternative sourcing options as uncertainty continues to cloud Europe’s semiconductor supply chain.
