20/01/2025

Podcast by Charles Cohen, Giada Santana, Miriam Sáenz de Tejada

German carmakers are under pressure.

They must meet new EU carbon emission targets. Chinese manufacturers are gaining ground with cheaper, subsidized electric vehicles. A new German government could bring policy changes for the industry.

How are German carmakers trying to save the EV market?

In this episode, host Giada Santana talks to Jasper Steinlein, a reporter covering energy, the environment, and transport. They discuss the crisis facing German carmakers and how political parties are promising to fix it.
