The transition to electric drive In Europe it continues at a satisfactory pace, as most automakers remain within their original plans. However, the recent relaxation of targets by the European Commission has resulted in a reduction in electric vehicles, which affects the number of new electric cars on European roads. According to data from the European Federation of Transport and Environment, automakers raised electric cars prices after loosening the CO2 emissions targets.

Despite efforts to slow the market for electric vehicles, battery prices and technological developments that improve autonomy boost consumers’ demand. By 2027, a significant reduction in the cost of batteries is expected, which will make electric cars more affordable.

The charging network in the European Union is growing rapidly. All EU countries have already exceeded the target for the total number of charging points set for 2025, while almost 80% of the basic highway network now has charges.

European automakers increased a 38% increase in electric cars in the first seven months of the year. This ensures that most companies, with the exception of Mercedes, are on the right track to comply with their 2025-27 broadcast targets. However, the two -year extension of the objectives enabled companies to limit production and revise their original goals.

Europe is now in the face of a crucial crossroads: leading the global electric car market and entering the electricity dynamically or risking to stay behind developments. The European Federation of Transport and Environment warns that further weakening CO2 emissions for the period 2030-2035 could undermine investment and efforts to date, while giving China in the field of electric vehicles.
