The Association of International Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (VDIK) generally supports the German government\u2019s proposals from yesterday\u2019s coalition committee meeting regarding the Immediate Energy Action Plan and the Automotive Package.<\/p>\n
VDIK President Imelda Labb\u00e9: \u201cThe German government has recognized that personal mobility in Germany must remain affordable. The two-month reduction in the energy tax on gasoline and diesel is currently a positive signal for the economy and consumers. With an eye toward the upcoming negotiations in Brussels, the VDIK also welcomes the fact that the federal government agreed in the coalition committee on a common position regarding the Automotive Package and thus on a strong voice in Brussels. The fact that the federal government opposes electric vehicle quotas for corporate fleets demonstrates its fundamental confidence in the market\u2019s natural regulatory power.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other measures, such as averaging CO2 targets over three-year periods, help make fleet limits more flexible and thus help vehicle manufacturers avoid penalties. Plug-in hybrids with long electric ranges make an indispensable contribution to the transformation of the automotive industry and to climate protection. Like the German government, the VDIK therefore opposes tightening the utility factor after 2027.<\/p>\n
The VDIK explicitly opposes EU overregulation and additional bureaucracy.
\nDuring yesterday\u2019s discussions, the coalition committee rejected the proposal for supercredits for small electric vehicles without commenting on the broader context.<\/p>\n
