The German government is introducing a new purchase premium for electric cars, retroactive for vehicles newly registered since the start of the year. Subsidies ranging from 1,500 to 6,000 euros will be available based on income and family status. Environment Minister Carsten Schneider views it as a boost for the domestic automotive industry.
The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) has incorporated entire passages from a position paper by the Association of the German Automotive Industry (VDA) into its own document on electric mobility. This revelation highlights the party's close alignment with industry interests ahead of upcoming elections. Critics argue it undermines independent policymaking.
