Ford Motor Co. says it has begun discussions with unions in Germany about possible job cuts at its Saarlouis assembly plant.
The facilities current builds the C-Max compact MPV, but Ford intends to phase out that model and its Grand C-Max variant. The plant employs 6,200 people.
Ford dropped the C-Max in the U.S. this year. The company notes that the European van market also is shrinking. The company adds that a “very high level of investment” would be required to enable the C-Max to meet coming regulatory standards.
