Committee and Working Groups
The VDA currently has about 35 Working Groups, which in some cases have set up their own sub-committee or ad hoc working group. The majority of VDA working groups consist of members of all three manufacturer groups (automobile manufacturers (=MGI) / Trailer, special body and bus manufacturers (=MG II) / Suppliers (=MG III). However, there are also committees with representatives from only one or two manufacturer groups.
