VM Survey: Just no new scrappage bonus!

The high number of combustion engine vehicles, coupled with certain politicians' calls to continue buying and driving combustion engine models, endangers the mobility transition. Nevertheless, half of our web community considers a new scrappage bonus to be counterproductive and unsustainable.

The stock of combustion engine vehicles endangers the traffic transition. Is there a need for a new "scrappage scheme" for switching to electric cars? This was our question of the week, which also enjoyed "lively demand" with 105 participants. However, only a minority found such a measure appropriate: "Yes, absolutely. It benefits doubly because it displaces combustion engines and promotes electric vehicles," voted 18% (19 votes). The vast majority, on the other hand, maintained: "No, under no circumstances. Even the scrappage scheme of 2009 was a destruction of value and not sustainable," which 52% (55 votes) opted for. Thirty percent of the participants chose the middle ground with the answer: "Maybe, if it is properly set up - and the old vehicles are truly taken out of circulation" (31 votes).
