@EUCommission In Germany there are to different % numbers. Which one is it?
Hello @dnkrupinski, 13.5% for Germany and 27.4% for Luxembourg.
@EUCommission je vais acheter un vélo électrique à la place pour remplacer la voiture. C'est le meilleur compromis entre facilité de se déplacer et cause environnementale.
C'est moins greenwashing 🤭 puis c'est économiquement plus rentable
@EUCommission so 86% is still fossil?
EVs are better than ICEs, but autonomous vehicles would be even nicer.
I hope to live as long as seein them.

@EUCommission die deutschen werden mit ihren #Verbrennern eventuell ein größere Reichweite haben, allerdings werden sie diese dann auch im Ausland benötigen um eine Tankstelle zu erreichen 🤪.
@EUCommission Good for pollution in the short time but what about the disposal of batteries in the long term? Is there a safe and sustainable solution as there are lots of poisonous parts to these?
@EUCommission Back in the day they called it Morocco.
@EUCommission I love that the Benelux countries are doing so well here.
@EUCommission Norway is also doing very good in this respect, although not in the EU they are part of the EEA.
Comfortable to not have to include Norway in the graph.
While it's less bad than if all these new car sales were petrol or diesel, a "clean future" is one where trains cover most travel and bicycles, trams and electric buses cover all short distances.
Europe, with its compact geography and pre-existing railway lines, is ideally suited to swiftly transition to a largely car-free society. That is the future.
@EUCommission well done, Denmark!
