The German government is working to prevent the European Union’s new tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles from coming into force — or at least soften them should a full halt not be possible, according to people familiar with the matter.

      As a german I second this. Fuck FDP and the big automobile business that holds us back from achieving a cleaner and greener tomorrow.

        But aren’t more and special cheeper EVs better for the environment? So by preventing of softening the Tariffs on Chinese EVs, BMW etc are helping the environment.

        Not out of altruism, sure, but it IS a good example of capitalism working towards a greener world.

        Or am I missing something?
