In recent years, electric cars have been increasingly successful, and their market share is constantly growing. And it’s far from over, even if sales seem to be slowing down a bit in recent months.

There is an exception to the end of sales of diesel cars in 2035, voted by the European Parliament: luxury cars (Ferrari, etc.). Of course, there are not many of them, so the emissions will be limited, but for the symbol and social justice, it will be necessary to return pic.twitter.com/6gPS9lc6ZE

A controversial measure

If some motorists switch to this engine for environmental reasons, others, on the contrary, are more attracted to any help. Among them is an ecological bonus, but not only. Because driving an electric car also offers many benefits. In fact, these cars can currently be parked for free at charging stations in parts of the city where parking is charged, and this has been the case for several years in most European countries. However, this is not without consequences. Indeed, sometimes cars stay at charging stations much longer than necessary, which can create problems for those who need to plug their car into an outlet or risk running out of battery. Therefore, from February 1 the city of Harlemlocated in the Netherlands, will now charge for parking at charging stations also for owners of zero-emission cars.

When will we be home?

However, this new decision does not apply to owners of electric vehicles with a parking permit in the relevant parking zone corresponding to the resident package. The municipality also wants it facilitate car sharing between neighbors or friends Even if they don’t all live in the same permission zone. It is now possible to request a permit to park together for one vehicle. Then the permit may be valid in several parking zones. But then will we ever have to pay for parking at the terminals on top of the charging price in France? This cannot be ruled out, since the trend is to increase prices and implement measures to make motorists spend more and more. But as of now, nothing is confirmed on the matter and drivers can still enjoy it without fear. But until when? The question still remains unanswered.
