Germany’s sudden spike in EV purchases in 2020 and 2021 is largely attributed to government subsidies and grants.
You could get up to €9,000 on an electric car purchase.
In 2022, the amount has decreased to €6,000.
The government subsidies reduced further to €4,000 in 2023, and is expected to cut back again to €3,000 in 2024 and 2025.
