“It is important for us in Austria that we come up with a solution similar to that in Germany, because otherwise there is a risk that price-supported cars will be imported from Germany,” says Schützinger. There will definitely need to be an incentive to buy. Schützinger is “thinking, for example, of a financial staggering depending on CO2 emissions – more money for electric and hybrid cars, but also money for cars with combustion engines, because there are simply not enough electric vehicles at the moment.” Without measures, “probably 65,000 fewer cars” would be sold in Austria than in the previous year.
