Electricity rationing: a devastating signal for electric car buyers and interested parties
Car buyers are considering whether they should switch to e-mobility or give preference to a diesel or gasoline engine. And then the Federal Ministry of Economics goes public with the message that electricity for the charging stations may have to be rationed in order to avoid widespread blackouts.
Volkswagen reports a tripling of sales of electrified cars in 2020 compared to the previous year. This is undoubtedly a success that many e-skeptics would not have thought possible. The power with which VW marketing has achieved these numbers can also become a problem in the long run.
