"The CEO of a major car brand in custody: this has never been."
Berlin VW CEO Herbert Diess is appalled by the arrest of Audi boss Rupert Stadler. "This was indeed a huge shock for me," said Diess in an interview with the "Bild am Sonntag" at the subsidiary's processes. "The CEO of a major car brand in custody: this has never been the case." The Munich prosecutor had arrested the director of Audi, arrested in June for "obscuring" in the diesel case
"For me, the arrest is difficult to understand" says Diess. "I have experienced Rupert Stadler as a problem solver." For him, it is a question of integrity to treat equitably with people in difficult situations. As long as no other fact is known, the presumption of innocence applies to it. When asked if he could imagine a return of Stadler, Diess said, "It depends on the facts.If the allegations of the prosecutor's office, the decision is clear."
A weakness of leadership at Audi sees Diess not. "For us, the business is like this: if the CEO is at a time and the rest of the team is there, then you do not notice much," said the VW boss. "It takes too much time, so of course it's a problem, but I'm sure we'll get out of there because Audi has a lot of substance, a good team and continues to build beautiful cars. "
