Since 2015, Europe has been specified annual CO2 emissions from cars should not exceed 130g / km. After 2021, this provision will continue to strictly average not exceed 95g / km. If more than car manufacturers will be fined.
Therefore, in the present case, if the car manufacturers do not change, no transformation, then it would have to pay a fine of hundreds of millions. And the European Union by 2030, but also on the reference standard in 2021 and then to reduce emissions 37.5 percent, a reduction of 59 g / km average carbon dioxide emissions. Although the high EU requirements, but the truth is that due to the large car and SUV sales is good, so the average carbon dioxide emissions last year, an increase of more.
Thus European car manufacturers in order to survive, it is necessary to work hard in pure electric vehicles, a hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
10 years, the European cumulative pure electric car 640 000

Germany is Europe’s largest new energy automobile State
According to the EU Alternative Fuels Institute (EAFO ) data, European electric vehicle (battery + plug-in hybrid) the largest number of countries are Germany, so far, a total of 265,979. Followed byUnited Kingdom (247,492), France (208,176), the Netherlands (173,438) and Sweden (10,5588 units). But only in 2019, the gap is even greater.

Rapid development of charging infrastructure, are trying to play a role in reducing the burden on consumers.
the German market prospects are very bright electric vehicles, Volkswagen’s electric car ID.3 is a very representative models. German car borrowed CAM data analysis company, reported that Germany has become the world’s third-largest electric car development of the country.
