Yeah, it still doesn’t make sense. If your car already has an electric drivetrain and a battery, why wouldn’t you want to charge it at home to reduce emissions by up to 100% while reducing cost per km by a factor of like 3 or 4 and instead use a diesel generator to charge the car while it’s driving? Mild hybrids can suck it.
Not everyone has their own home. Fueling up is much faster. EV’s are more expensive when buying. Hybrids have much longer range. EV’s at 15kwh/100km would be depending on the price end up at like 4-6€/100km, Hybrids at 4L/100km would end up at like 7€/100km.
Well, average Fuel Consumption for petrol engines in germany is 7.7L, so if you drive a mild hybrid that has 4-5L it still helps.
Edit: also i just realized that its new cars registrations for december, not total share.
