Germany Forms Task Force to Drive Automotive Industry's Future
The German government has formed a 'working group' to explore further investments in the future of the automotive industry. This was announced at the recent 'Automotive Summit', attended by Chancellor Angela Merkel and key industry figures. The group will delve into various aspects until their next meeting in November.
The summit also discussed a potential purchase premium for cars with internal combustion engines. However, a decision on this matter was postponed. Germany's ambition to become the first country worldwide to permit driverless motor vehicles in regular operation and across its entire territory was also highlighted. The working group, which will investigate these and other aspects, is expected to provide crucial insights for the industry's future.
The working group will play a significant role in shaping the future of the German automotive industry. Their examination of investments, aid for suppliers, and other aspects will guide the industry's evolution. The group's findings, due in November, are eagerly anticipated by the industry and the government alike.
