Until the fifth month, a total of 30,710 electrified cars are added, when the market would have to be close to 50,000 units sold to achieve the 120,000 units set as a milestone in 2022 to reach the objective set by the PNIEC in 2030.
DECLARATIONS
José López-Tafall, general director of ANFAC, pointed out that “the electrified vehicle is a reality in our market, but it is still a minority. The sector pushes with a wide range of electrified vehicles, but it must be responded to the same extent by the demand. Sales of this type of vehicle have increased compared to the previous year, which is good news, but its rate of entry is still slow and below what is necessary to reach the milestone of 120,000 electrified passenger cars for this year, which will allow us to meet the European emission reduction requirements. Measures such as accelerating the promotion of recharging infrastructure, greater efficiency in aid plans or a fiscal framework with positive measures to encourage electrification are very necessary if we want to move decisively towards decarbonization and catch up with the main countries, even more so if new, even more ambitious goals are approved.”
