The value of electric cars will fall as the load of batteries falls in the coming years, explains the CEO of Fiat and DS, Olivier François. The Fiat leader also believes that governments can do more with incentives until then to build the intake of electric vehicles.
François, who is also a marketing director of the widest organization of Stellantis, estimates that we will see a replacement in the 2027 battery balance, the safe batteries that reduce costs from up to € 5,000 (£ 4,185).
Going to the independent the launch of the new Panda Fiat Grande, which, with £ 20,975, is one of the cheapest electric cars in the United Kingdom, François said: “At one time, we will have greater prices in batteries. It is intended to descend Radically in 2027. It is not just for us, it is the generation that arrives and what will help it.
“What is a misfortune is that government incentives deserve to have created a bridge so far. Now we have an increase: there are no government incentives and the call to sell many electric cars due to CO2 objectives. »
When he drives how much less expensive batteries will become in a few years, François said: “If I had to guess, and it is my informed assumption, it would probably be € 5,000. And they will probably pass [in steps] that a curve.
François spoke then that the new edition of the emblematic Panda of the 80s, the Great Panda, introduced in Fiat de Fiat in Turin. The Grande Panda will be on sale in April with the first installments in June and will have as a soft gasoline hybrid car, as well as EV.
Great electric power from Panda to £ 20,975 Subcuits The new Citroen E-C3, with which it stores its 44 kWh battery and its 199 miles, £ 1,195. The new less expensive batteries can significantly reduce these prices, by getting rid of what François says that it is one of the largest blockages for electric vehicles assets: the price.
François also revealed that Fiat is running in a smaller panda style replacement that remains for sale at the moment. The new less expensive baby panda will adhere to the giant panda with gasoline and electric power. It will be based on the platform used for the Fiat 500, which was first introduced as an electric car still, which is also being involved again for the hybrid gasoline force.
Before seeing the new little panda, an even bigger style that the Fiat Grande Panda deserves to be introduced next year, back with an electrical and hybrid power, does not take the call of the Panda.
