26:05Now PlayingGermany’s most important industry is celebrating itself - and its crown jewel: the car. But behind the scenes, the German auto sector is in deep trouble. Just like the broader economy, it’s undergoing a painful transformation. At the International Auto Show in Munich, we’re seeing new models, fresh innovations, and sobering numbers. Global demand for German cars is stalling. Economic uncertainty is shaking consumer confidence. China is dominating the electric vehicle market. And Donald Trump is pushing for higher tariffs on EU car imports. The result? Shrinking profits, shaken confidence, and thousands of jobs on the line. On To the Point we ask: Autoland’s reckoning: Are German cars a thing of the Past?
