Germany is taking a course to electric

According to the newspaper Deutsche Welle, the chancellor said this on Saturday, speaking with a weekly video message to fellow citizens. Angela Merkel did not exclude that in 2030 in Germany will be 6 million electric vehicles. In her view, the country, despite strong competition in the face of Asia, will become a leader in the manufacture of electric vehicles. Angela Merkel also stressed that electric cars will help the country get rid of oil and the mass introduction of a positive impact on the environment.

However, according to agency DPA, in possession of a copy of the report of the Chancellor, the document expressed serious doubt in the ability of the government in Berlin in time to reach their goals. The report states that without massive state aid to produce 1 million electric cars by 2020 will fail. In turn, the head of the faction of "green" Renate Künast proposed to introduce a German prize of $ 5 thousand euros for the purchase of electric vehicles.
