In recent months, this anti-diesel chatter, and the EU emphasis on mandating more C02 standards for cars manufactured in the next decade.....has opened this little issue which rarely if ever....is discussed in public.
The cost factor of new battery-cars or C02 standard cars. The gross average monthly wage in Germany is 2322 Euro per month (2017 numbers). That's roughly 2,600 US dollars a month (gross average).
If you went and tried to price most of the battery-cars....the average guy can't really afford it. The guy who is a lawyer, an architect, or mid-level bank employee....they would be able to handle it.
If you go and price the technology cars meeting C02 levels? It's beyond at least a third of the working people in Germany.
In a sense, there's a confrontation that is being set into play, where about a third of the German population will be dealt a card where they can't travel or get anywhere....because they can't afford the vehicle required. No one talks about this or seems to worry about this future path being arranged in Germany.
