Chancellor Friedrich Merz said he would oppose the "hard cutoff" currently planned by the EU, aiming to stop registering new internal combustion engine cars by 2035. The goal was already under review and looking fragile.
Sorry mr Kaellenius, but the fact that you now make 100k EUR giant screens on wheels with loose interior trim has nothing to do with them being electric.
Signed, someone who actually used to like the cars MB made.
Also the EQE never got a wagon version but the T-modell is super popular for the normal E-class. And the EQC was crossover only, no normal car version at all…
BMW meanwhile went from a beautiful generation of cars to something truly ugly the same time they started making EVs properly and Volkswagen/Audi UX has been shit for at least half a decade now, I HATE operating any of the cars they’ve made this decade.
Idk what I’m gonna buy when 2000s and 2010s German cars are no longer maintainable, but I don’t think it’ll be German.
