1+ day, 2+ min ago (217+ words) Germany asks the EU to save the Internal combustion engine German Chancellor Friedrich Merz has sent a letter to European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen asking her to reconsider the strict ban on the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines from 2035.

German automakers warn that the market is not ready for such changes. Nevertheless, the final decision in some form is planned to be made at the EU level in December.

2+ day, 10+ hour ago (265+ words) Volkswagen said that the company will now develop and manufacture parts of electric vehicles entirely in China. The automaker said that compared with the cost of producing electric vehicles in Germany in 2023, the cost of some models in China has decreased by as much as 50%, and the development cycle of new Chinese electric vehicles has been reduced by 30%. China dominates the global electric vehicle market: its share in exports exceeds 70%, and local manufacturers offer models 30-50% cheaper than their European counterparts. Volkswagen has prepared a site of about 100,000 m (15 football fields), where there are more than 100 modern laboratories covering testing of hardware, programs, batteries, power units and certification of the entire car. The move seems inevitable against the backdrop of the energy crisis in Europe, when gas prices jumped 10-15 times (from "20/MWh to "300+ in 2022). The production of steel, aluminum, and electric…...
