Volkswagen says Nexperia chip supply has resumed
Nov 9, 2025 4:27 AM

(Corrects paragraph 1 of November 7 story to show that Volkswagen's China chief said the industry, not VW specifically, was receiving chips again)

FRANKFURT (Reuters) -Carmakers have received their first deliveries of chips from Chinese-owned semiconductor manufacturer Nexperia after a supply outage, Volkswagen's China chief told German daily Handelsblatt.

The Dutch government had seized control of Nexperia, which is based in the Netherlands, on September 30 as part of a broader U.S.-Chinese trade war, and the Chinese government blocked exports of its products from October 4, leading to a shortage of Nexperia chips widely used by carmakers.

Nexperia on Thursday, however, welcomed news that, under a U.S.-China agreement, it will not be subject to U.S. export restrictions for one year. China has also said it will allow exports on a case-by-case basis.

"There have already been initial exports," Ralf Brandstaetter, Volkswagen's board member for China, told Handelsblatt.

"After the agreement with the United States, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce reacted quickly and announced that it would grant short-term special permits."

How sustainably this system will function, he said, depends in particular on relations between the United States and China. While production in China by the carmaker is currently unaffected, the situation as a whole is creating uncertainty.
