According to Automobilwoche, the German government also now states that 'only' expects 6.15 million electric cars to be on the roads by that time.
In order to even reach the target of 15 million electric cars, 65 percent of all German car buyers will have to choose a new electric car when they are looking for their next means of transport.
In the month of May, however, interest in electric cars once again waned. Overall, sales of new electric cars have declined by as much as 31 percent compared to the month of May 2023. However, it was even worse in the month of January.
