Electric-mobility no new registrations for gasoline and diesel cars after 2030?

the federal states apparently do not want to allow any cars with gasoline or diesel engines after 2030. This is reported by the news magazine "der spiegel" in its latest issue. The decision had been made in the recent meeting of the bunderat.

This would mean that both SPD-led and union-led states have agreed on the decision on electromobility. However, it is not a direct decision for germany, but follows indirectly from a demand made by the bundesrat to the eu Commission.

Request to the EU Commission

According to spiegel, the decision calls on the EU commission to "evaluate the effectiveness of member states’ existing tax and charging practices in promoting zero-emission mobility [. ] so that by 2030 at the latest, only zero-emission cars will be registered throughout the union.".

background of the decision is the climate agreement. To meet the targets, Germany’s CO2 emissions must fall sharply. In the transport sector, the key to this lies in the use of electric cars. But so far, germany is lagging far behind the original goals here. Even a premium to encourage the purchase of electric cars or cars with hybrid technology has so far not brought the hoped-for success.

The decision is all the more astonishing because the conference of transport ministers of the federal states has put off the introduction of a blue sticker for air pollution control in inner cities.

3. Lobbyists are getting into position

The lobbyists at the German car manufacturers, who have so far slept through the switch to electric, will know how to prevent this from happening.

The “changeover on electric cars only exists in lala-political-dreamland. What the automakers did was to take the lavish subsidies for research on electric cars and use the money for their own research. Of course they continue to produce gasoline and diesel because electric cars are not competitive on any single criterion, not even if you use environmental impact as a yardstick. How deluded do you have to be to believe that a vehicle with 250 kilos of batteries on board would be in any way environmentally friendly?? Batteries have the property to lose massively power after shortest time. Already after one and a half years the range is even more limited than normal and after four five years so bad that you can exchange the 250 kilo batteries. Only ideologically blinded to the point of bullshit believe this has anything to do with environmental protection.

2. And the E-car is supposed to be more environmentally friendly! For the electricity lobby?

i just imagine an a 380, a luxury cruise ship and especially the military equipment with electric motor. A leopard tank with battery trailer and 20 km battery range certainly solves all environmental problems.
But the car user will again solve all environmental problems, the politicians believe.
Already gas cars don’t work because i don’t feel like driving to the gas station everyday.
The diesel car easily creates ranges of over 1000 km and that’s enough for me for two to max three days. The refueling itself takes only a few minutes.
As an expert you have a different view on E-cars. I hope that already in 2020, the current political leaders are no longer in office and responsibility.
It would be very easy to show the politics the red card, said me recently a car salesman. All potential new car buyers should postpone their purchase for one year!
The E-car hinders research and the development of real future drive concepts.

1. "New" from the "coffee set" ?

The "decision makers" from today but are unlikely to have much to decide in 2030 !

Electric is fine, but who is going to pay for it and where am I going to charge my car?. My garage should not get a power connection say the operator because it is too expensive for him and if I should go to work by bus I would need with at least 1.5 hours by train? Since the railroad is shutting down all routes I would need even longer and I would still be late because I also still 15 min. Running would have to then I can also draw equal to hartz IV and would get more at 0.000% stress and that is important to the worker in Germany stress and the hartz IV recipients who do not need it and are just lazy to give that is fact who says otherwise lies, love greetings
