Never mind persuading the public to buy electric vehicles, an emerging challenge for the green energy reset in Germany is getting them to keep them, with a soaring number of EV owners switching back to internal combustion.
One in three electric vehicle owners switched back to gasoline or diesel cars this year, data from Germany’s largest car insurer states, a growing trend suggesting even those who took the leap aren’t finding the new technology as suitable for their lifestyles as hoped. As stated, the abolition of the electric car subsidy encouraging new purchases with a hefty €4,500 to €6,000 ($4,900, $6,500) taxpayer-funded discount continues to be felt.
Germany plans to abolish the sale of almost all new internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles by 2035, but has a long way to go in the next decade to square this with the public, a report on new data in Die Welt finds. While a survey that 29 per cent of Germans would only ever consider an electric car if forced by law and only 18 per cent say they would consider an electric for their next car purchase, actual observed behaviour is more instructive.
Just 3.6 per cent of ICE drivers made the switch to electric in Germany this year, it is stated, with electric vehicles accounting for 2.9 per cent of vehicles on the country’s roads. Yet at the same time, 34 per cent of electric car owners switched back to ICE so far this year.
