91% of German e-car dealerships see current order situation as \u201cpoor\u201d or \u201cvery poor\u201d for the year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Politicians in Germany had been racing to eliminate fossil fuel cars and replace them with e-cars. But then the technical and economic realities began to sink in \u2013 especially among private consumers, who are turning their backs on them in droves!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They should have listened to real science instead of all the activist funded rubbish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharp drop in demand for electric cars in Germany. Private customers order 47% fewer e-cars in the first half of the year. Image: AI-generated by\u00a0Blackout News<\/a>.\u00a0<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Online German national daily \u2018Welt\u2019 here reports<\/a> how electric car sales among private consumers in the first half of 2024 have fallen through the floor, dropping a whopping 47% compared to a year earlier. The massive drop is a major setback in the country\u2019s rush to going \u201ccarbon neutral.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hat-tip: Blackout News<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGermans are becoming increasingly skeptical about electric cars. Current figures from car dealerships reveal an escalation in rejection,\u201d reports \u2018Welt<\/a>\u2018. Especially private customers are rejecting e-vehicles. Hybrid cars are also seeing a massive drop, with sales plummeting 37% over the same period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cDealerships are not expecting any improvement for the second half of the year,\u201d reports \u2018Welt<\/a>\u2018. \u201cOf the car dealerships surveyed, 91% rate the order situation among private customers for purely electric cars as \u2018poor\u2019 or \u2018very poor\u2019 for the year as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile petrol and diesel engine car sales have risen 24% and 20% respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buyers have become turned off by the lousy national charging infrastructure, range limitations and high costs. Moreover, many consumers have begun to understand that e-cars are not that green after all and pose their own set of environmental challenges. Owning an e-car offers very few benefits, but come with high costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
