German FAZ: The new competition for the market for cheap electric cars007076

A race for the market segment for inexpensive electric cars is now beginning among car manufacturers. On the one hand, it’s about a release date for cheap electric cars as soon as possible. On the other hand, it is about attractive technical solutions that also have to be manufactured so cheaply that companies still have a profit margin even at prices below 25,000 euros. Politicians and industry experts have been calling for cheaper electric cars for a long time in order to support the ramp-up of electromobility. But a technically sophisticated medium-sized battery with 60 kilowatt hours still costs more than 8,000 euros, a prohibitive price for cheap cars.
