Germany is expected to have 8 million battery-electric vehicles by 2030, with electric cars making up around 70% of total passenger car sales. The NOW GmbH predicts a significant surge in electric vehicle adoption, driven by increasing model ranges, battery capacities, and charging capabilities.
Germany is projected to reach 8 million battery-electric vehicles by 2030, according to a forecast by NOW GmbH. The organization's 'Cleanroom Talks' gathered data from major car manufacturers, representing over 80% of passenger car sales and 90% of electric passenger car sales in Germany. The findings indicate a rapid increase in battery-electric vehicle sales, with 1.8 million new electric cars expected to be sold in 2030, making up around 70% of total passenger car sales. The growth is driven by expanding model ranges, increasing battery capacities, and improving charging capabilities. By 2030, the number of battery-electric vehicle models is expected to increase by 40%, with average usable battery capacities rising by around 5%. High-power charging capability is also expected to become more widespread, even in smaller models.
