In November, plugin EVs captured a 22.8% market share in Germany, with BEVs at 14.4% and PHEVs at 8.4%. The Skoda Enyaq led BEV sales for the third consecutive month, while Volkswagen Group maintained dominance with the top four BEV models. Despite a weak economy and high prices, new affordable BEVs are expected to emerge in 2025 due to tighter emissions regulations.
Tesla Owners Club Queensland hosted an exclusive event showcasing the Cybertruck, generating excitement among members despite some initial underwhelm regarding its size. Attendees noted its aggressive design and innovative features, while discussions highlighted the challenges of launching the vehicle in Australia due to strict regulations. The event was deemed a success, with calls for Tesla to expedite the Cybertruck's entry into the Australian market.
In November, the UK auto market saw plugin EVs capture 35.3% of sales, with BEVs alone accounting for 25.1%. Tesla led the market with 12% share, followed by Volkswagen and Mercedes. As manufacturers rush to meet the 2024 ZEV mandate, significant discounts on BEVs are expected in December.
Donald Trump’s transition team is considering canceling the U.S. Postal Service's contracts for electric delivery vehicles, aligning with his campaign promises to roll back Biden's climate initiatives. This includes a review of multi-billion dollar contracts with Oshkosh Corp and Ford for tens of thousands of electric trucks. The USPS, which received $3 billion for EVs as part of a climate bill, faces legal challenges in severing these contracts, but Trump's policies may test executive power limits.
EVgo and GM have successfully established 2,000 charging stalls across nearly 400 locations in North America, enhancing EV infrastructure through partnerships with Pilot/Flying J and other retailers. Despite challenges, including utility coordination, the initiative is set to expand by 850 additional stalls, contributing to a more competitive and resilient charging network.
Norway's EV market is evolving with new entrants like the BYD Sealion and Kia EV3, expected to gain traction in the coming months. The affordable Dongfeng Nammi Box, priced at 199,900 NOK, could disrupt the economy segment by undercutting traditional ICE models. As the market adapts, the focus remains on providing budget-friendly BEV options to replace remaining plugless vehicles.
Jaguar is attempting to revive its brand by introducing the Type 00 concept car, which has sparked mixed reactions for its bold design reminiscent of the XK-E coupe. Aiming for the luxury market with a price tag of £120,000, the company seeks to attract a new audience while ceasing new car sales in the UK ahead of a relaunch as an electric-only brand in 2026. Critics argue the design is impractical and the price point targets a limited market, raising concerns about the brand's future direction.
Donald Trump's proposed 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada threaten major U.S. automakers, with GM, Ford, and Stellantis facing significant profit losses due to their reliance on cross-border supply chains. Analysts warn that tariffs on individual car parts could be even more damaging, potentially raising costs for consumers. Carmakers may need to increase U.S. production or cut costs to mitigate the impact, but the shift could be challenging, especially for European manufacturers with limited spare capacity.
Ford shares have struggled amid fierce competition and high financing costs, recently consolidating between $10 and $11.30 after disappointing earnings. A potential exit from this range, particularly upwards, could signal a bullish trend, especially if political changes favor local manufacturers. Analysts may revise targets higher if sentiment shifts positively.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum warned that proposed U.S. tariffs could lead to significant job losses in the U.S. and retaliatory measures from Mexico. Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard emphasized the need for regional cooperation, stating that tariffs would harm both economies, particularly the automotive sector, which heavily relies on cross-border trade. Analysts view the tariff threats as a negotiating tactic rather than a firm trade policy.
