PSA Group confirms that it will cut production from two shifts to one at its factory in Ellesmere Port, England, in a bid to balance output with demand.
The move will eliminate 400 jobs at the factory, which produces Opel and Vauxhall brand Astra midsize cars for the European market. PSA also warns that the facility must improve overall efficiency to safeguard its future.
PSA, which acquired Opel/Vauxhall in August, has ensured only that the British plant will continue to operate until the current model Astra is replaced in 2021.
