At the end of 2022, electric cars in Germany will have broken the million mark for the first time. Because as of January 1, 2023, around 1.01 million electric vehicles were registered in Germany. This number is certainly a milestone for electromobility.
However, if you look at the total number of vehicles registered in Germany, e-cars still only make up a small fraction. At the beginning of the year, the number of registered cars in Germany also set a new record. As of January 1, 2023, around 48.76 million vehicles were registered in Germany.
Small electric cars could make a difference, especially for city traffic. That’s what the Swedish company Luvly did, which wants to offer a cheap and small alternative to the normal car with its Luvly O.
