*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
The German government has announced its intention to take a further step in its attempt to boost electric vehicle (EV) sales by requiring all service stations to offer EV charging. This aims to help ease consumer range anxiety and so increase EV sales. The move builds on the government’s recent coronavirus stimulus package in which it has doubled the incentives for EVs while taxing large polluting ICE cars. Several European governments see such measures as an opportunity to advance EV and EV charging goals.
