The German government, despite the decline in sales and the renunciation of incentives, continues to aim for the circulation of 15 million electric cars in Germany by 2030. "We know that it is an ambitious goal," an executive spokesperson said during the press conference.
"But now it's about creating and offering an attractive environment for electromobility," added the spokesperson. "Since the establishment of this government, essentially in 2022, "we have doubled the available public charging points, now reaching over one hundred thousand," said the spokesperson in response to a question about the impact of the Tesla job cuts announced by Elon Musk for Tesla. The auto industry is working on this, and we are confident that" the "German one will offer and is offering very attractive proposals," the spokesperson said, referring to the German government's offer of purchase subsidies for electric cars. The German government is also creating a thousand rapid charging points in motorway rest areas. It's the industry's job to provide attractive vehicles, the spokesperson further said, and the auto industry will offer attractive proposals.
