“2016 marks mental tipping point for electro-mobility”
Center of Automotive Management (CAM) / Spiegel Online
The global market for e-mobility is being pulled by China, where half a million e-vehicles and plug-in hybrids were sold last year, according to an analysis by the Center of Automotive Management (CAM). This is in contrast to Germany, where only around 25,000 were sold. The e-car market share was 1.8 percent in China, 0.75 percent in Germany, 1.4 percent in France und UK, 0.9 percent in the US and 29 percent in Norway, according to a Spiegel Online report on the study. CAM head Stefan Bratzel said last year marked the “mental tipping point for e-mobility”.
