Renault-Chef drängt auf „Marshall-Plan“ für EU-Elektrofahrzeuge, da chinesische Importe 25 % des europäischen Marktes ausmachen.

Submission Statement

Traditionally the EU has had internal budget battles over proposals like this. Usually, because Germany objects to the EU accruing more debt. This time could be different. Car manufacture is the bedrock of the German economy; they are threatened as almost no one else is in Europe by Chinese EVs.

There used to be a time when free market economic types objected to ideas like this on principle. Their rationale was the market left alone always delivered the best outcomes. Those days are disappearing, and I suspect with the automation to come we can see around the corner, are about to be permanently consigned to the garbage pile of history.

Let the chinese have it and develop even cleaner diesel engines.
