Higher costs, lower premiums – sales of electric cars are faltering. Is the combustion engine celebrating its comeback?
Shortly before the turn of the year, the new VW boss makes a U-turn: Oliver Blume is at the desk in the City Cube on the Berlin exhibition grounds, as always a bit boyish with an open shirt collar and no tie. The group has called an extraordinary general meeting, which has become necessary due to the Porsche IPO. In his speech, Blume made the usual commitments to electric driving. But then he pauses for a moment, looks at the audience and says “but”: One also thinks “of the existing fleets on the streets. E-fuels can play a role there.”
