疫情期間歐洲電動汽車市場份額將增至三倍

據(jù)路透社10月13日布魯塞爾報道，根據(jù)非政府組織運輸與環(huán)境（T&E）的分析顯示，2020年上半年，電動汽車占歐洲汽車銷量的8%，使其今年的市場份額有望翻三番。

雖然新型冠狀病毒大流行使汽車整體銷量大幅下滑，但電動汽車（T&E將其定義為電池和插電式混合動力車型）的銷量卻有所增長。

T&E稱，與去年上半年相比，電動汽車在歐洲經(jīng)濟區(qū)（EEA）的市場份額增加了三倍多。

它表示，預(yù)計今年這類汽車的全部銷量將有望翻番，達到100萬輛。

T&E將銷量增長歸功于今年生效的更嚴格的歐盟汽車排放標準，以及德國和法國在流行病后的購買激勵措施。

該非政府組織預(yù)計汽車制造商將達到2020年的排放標準，2020年電動汽車和插電式混合動力汽車的市場份額將增加三倍，達到歐洲經(jīng)濟區(qū)汽車銷量的10%。

"這是因為歐盟的排放標準，但這也要歸功于汽車制造商去年所做的許多投資，"報告合著者Julia Poliscanova說。

歐洲汽車制造商協(xié)會(ACEA)表示，電動汽車的銷量受到國家支持計劃的推動，以促進經(jīng)濟從COVID-19疫情中復(fù)蘇，但這種趨勢不一定是長期的。

"很難對這種由補貼驅(qū)動的'人為'增長對未來消費者行為的長期轉(zhuǎn)變做出任何預(yù)測，"ACEA表示。

T&E敦促歐盟制定更嚴格的未來排放目標，以確保電動汽車逐漸淘汰污染型汽車。

耗油量大的SUV在2020年上半年也將其市場份額提高到39％。

歐盟委員會已經(jīng)概述了進一步收緊汽車二氧化碳限制的計劃，作為其更嚴格的2030年歐盟氣候目標提案的一部分。

ACEA表示，決策者需要加強充電基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施和計劃，使零排放汽車的價格可承受，然后再考慮采用更嚴格的二氧化碳標準。

Electric cars to triple market share in Europe amid COVID-19, researchers say

Electric vehicles made up 8 per cent of car sales in Europe in the first half of 2020, putting them on track to triple their market share this year, according to analysis by the NGO Transport & Environment (T&E).

While the novel coronavirus pandemic has seen overall car sales plummet, sales of electric cars - which T&E defined as both battery and plug-in hybrid models - have increased.

This saw electric cars more than triple their market share in the European Economic Area (EEA), compared with the first half of last year, T&E said.

Outright sales of such vehicles are expected to roughly double this year, to one million units, it said.

T&E attributed the sales increase to tougher European Union car emissions standards, which took effect this year, and post-pandemic purchase incentives in Germany and France.

The NGO expects carmakers to meet the 2020 emissions standards, which would see electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles triple their market share in 2020 to 10% of EEA car sales.

"It is because of the EU emissions standards, but it is also thanks to many investments carmakers made last year," report co-author Julia Poliscanova said.

The European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA) said electric vehicle sales have been boosted by national support schemes to foster economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic but that this trend was not necessarily a long-term one.

"It is difficult to make any predictions on future long-term shifts in consumer behaviour from such 'artificial' growth driven by subsidies," ACEA said.

T&E urged the EU to set tougher future emissions targets to ensure electric vehicles keep edging out polluting models.

Fuel-guzzling SUVs also increased their market share, to 39%, in the first half of 2020.

The European Commission has already outlined plans to further tighten car CO2 limits as part of its proposal for a tougher 2030 EU climate goal.

ACEA said policymakers needed to strengthen charging infrastructure and schemes to make zero-emissions vehicles affordable before considering tighter CO2 standards.
