Mercedes-Benz<\/strong> has expressed concern about the lack of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles in Europe<\/strong>, criticizing the inaction of the European Union<\/strong> in this area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The company’s CEO, Ola K\u00e4llenius<\/strong>, also President<\/strong> of the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA)<\/strong>, has pointed out that the production of electric cars exceeds the current charging capacity available on the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

K\u00e4llenius highlights that, although decarbonization<\/strong> is essential, “the path must be compatible with industrial and economic policy<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He criticizes that the plans of the European Union<\/strong> have not been updated in the last six years, ignoring recent socio-economic changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, he points out that while countries like France<\/strong>, Netherlands<\/strong>, Germany<\/strong>, and the Scandinavian nations have made progress in infrastructure, others are lagging behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

European Commission<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The European Commission<\/strong> has responded by acknowledging that the automotive industry is undergoing a “profound and disruptive change<\/strong>” and has called for the development of joint solutions, as millions of jobs depend on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mercedes-Benz<\/strong> urges the European Union<\/strong> to follow the example of countries like China<\/strong>, which leads in electric mobility, by implementing incentives and subsidies to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lack of adequate infrastructure has led many consumers to prefer hybrid vehicles, taking advantage of the available subsidies for these models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The German company<\/strong> emphasizes the need to increase investment in electric mobility over the next decade, particularly in the installation of public charging points, to facilitate the use of sustainable vehicles and meet decarbonization goals<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
