Electric cars take the ratio of fuel car five European countries

The guardian reported, the latest research shows that Britain, Germany, France, the Netherlands and Norway five European countries such as the electric car overtook fuel car purchase and use cost performance.

the study choose Europe's best-selling Volkswagen golf as the research object, comprehensive research on the brand electric cars, hybrid cars, gasoline and diesel fuel consumption and the tax situation. Results showed that over the past four years, the five countries all-electric cars are the most cost-effective models, this is a tax adjustment, a result of the combined action of fuel cost and purchase price subsidies.

transport carbon emissions is one of the main causes of global warming, and in recent years, the eu's carbon emissions continued to rise. The international clean transportation committee ( Hereinafter referred to as & other; ICCT” ） Studies show that tax cuts be to promote the electric car use and respond to climate change, the key way to reduce air pollution.

it is understood that the Norwegian vehicle registration tax is quite heavy, but in the local buy electric motor vehicle registration tax shall be exempted. Compared with diesel car owners, buy electric cars can save 27% of the cost. ICCT, according to the latest figures after cut the electric car purchase subsidies, the electric car owners still can save 5% of the lowest cost. Germany, France and the Netherlands owners can save 11% 15% of the cost.

from ICCT Sandra & middot; Tile pell horst said: & other; Remove the special circumstances, the electric car can now meet the demand of most of the owners of the mileage, and cost-effective optimal in four years. ” Tile pell horst inference, 2025 - 2030 electric car sales price will be lower than the fuel vehicle, the market will no longer rely on financial measures. “ Battery costs are declining, electric car sales prices in the nature. ” She added.

reduce the purchase cost is only one factor to promote the growth of the electric car sales, tile pell horst said that although the electric car owners can enjoy preferential, parking, transportation, and the charge but also need to strengthen infrastructure construction, to ensure the charging demand of the owner. At the same time, the regulation of automobile manufacturers, and promote the transition to low emission vehicle is also very necessary.

James Tate Leeds university and his colleagues have published the study in December 2017, the British, American and Japanese cars cost has carried on the research. The results showed that from the perspective of depreciation and fuel costs, the electric car is still dominant than fuel vehicles, because the price of electricity is far lower than gasoline or diesel fuel prices.

Tate, says the British government can take more measures to promote the electric car growth. “ Through these measures, and guide the market eliminate pollution and low efficiency of vehicles, such as SUV, these heavy vehicle emissions, pollution, heavy, but it is still growing sales. At present, the Netherlands and Norway has formulated the corresponding tax policy. ”

it is understood that in 2018, the electric car sales increased by 21%, the market share of 6%. Although diesel cars, in contrast, still account for 32% of the market, but its sales dropped 30%.

Tate, said before because of diesel emissions criticized manufacturers are nipping at the situation. “ Demand for electric cars is gradually catch up with supply. Manufacturer is gearing up to expand the scale of production, the development of new models, but the market changes fast and is still vulnerable to the manufacturer. ”

the UK charity drive the RAC foundation director Steve & middot; Said gooding & other; The British government's passion for electric cars is obvious, but must ensure that its clarity and stability of the policy, only in this way can reassure buyers on the policy adjustment, make a purchase decision. ”
