The car market seems to be close to a turning point, but not in a positive way for those who are thinking of changing cars, the prices of petrol cars could increase.
Having a car can certainly be necessary, with a few exceptions, for your daily commute. Not even those who live in a big city and have the opportunity to use public transport can do without it, aware of how it can be useful for errands, but also for long-distance travel, as can happen for holidays.
In times of crisis like the one we are experiencing, thinking about changing cars, even if it may be necessary, seems prohibitive for many, and it is no coincidence that many are waiting for government incentives that allow them to get a discount. However, the short and medium term solution does not appear to be the best, especially for those who are thinking of a petrol car.
Petrol cars: the turning point that no one wanted is coming
Many Italians are often creatures of habit, which is why they cannot ignore the idea of still focusing on a petrol car, although there is certainly no shortage of alternatives in terms of engines. Sometimes it is an almost obligatory choice based on greater convenience, even if there is a real risk that the situation could soon change. And unfortunately not for the better, at least for consumers’ pockets.
The possibility of seeing an increase in costs for petrol and diesel models is emergingl, with the aim of convincing even the most skeptical to focus onelectric. The proposal doesn’t seem to be so far-fetched because it doesn’t come from just anyone, but from Stefan Bratzel, director of the Center of Automotive Management (CAM) at the University of Bergisch Gladbach, who spoke about it to the German channel N-Tv. For some time he has also been involved in analyzing market changes in such a strategic sector, which is why he is convinced that this could be the best strategy.
In fact, he would even be against it ban on combustion engines from 2035 imposed by the European Union, but he is convinced that the way of acting pursued so far has not been the best. According to him, it would have been more useful to think gradually about saving CO2, that’s why it would have been It is inevitable to reach that date without the need to produce combustion propulsionwithout the need for actual bans.
In short, his idea would be to think of a bonus, but different from how we have always considered them, so as to direct purchasing choices in a different way. We just have to wait to understand if this scenario is really destined to become concrete, but perhaps we are not that far from it.
