It is a myth that people would rather say goodbye to their own car and individual mobility today than tomorrow. The lively response to the IAA in Munich proves that.
The IAA is taking place in Munich this week, a well-attended exhibition of beautiful cars and innovative mobility offers. What image does the public get? Every other country celebrated such a performance. In Germany, the downfall is conjured up.
The German key industry is eagerly attested to be uncatchable behind, a far-reaching professor from Duisburg praises the strengths of Chinese electric cars in a mysterious lack of distance to the manufacturer BYD. The European brands, on the other hand, are said to be asleep, and the Germans with their yesterday’s executives and engineers even more so.
