據油價網 2021年7月26日報道，自從世界各國政府強制采用電動汽車以來，所有人都在關注生產電動汽車何時才會最終具有經濟意義。

　　據德國大眾汽車公司（Volkswagen）稱，這一里程碑仍需要數年時間才能實現，但正在接近。大眾汽車公司首席執行官赫伯特?迪斯在本周舉行的年度股東大會上表示，“在兩到三年內”，電動汽車的利潤將達到與內燃機汽車相同的水平。

　　大眾汽車公司還透露，該公司轉向電動汽車的計劃仍在繼續，今年上半年交付了17.0939萬輛全電動汽車。 據彭博社報道，這一數字是大眾汽車公司去年交付的汽車數量的兩倍。

　　迪斯還強調說，電動汽車被視為未來10年顯著減少道路交通二氧化碳排放的“唯一方法”。

　　彭博社評論稱，大眾汽車公司目前還在為其“綠色”舉措激勵董事會和高管：大眾汽車公司采用了一種新的管理層薪酬體系，“包括環境、社會和公司治理（ESG）目標”。

　　回想一下，早在今年3月，大眾汽車公司就有意成為電動汽車領域的關鍵參與者，渴望與特斯拉這樣的公司競爭。

　　當時，大眾汽車公司制定了到2030年擴大電動汽車供應的計劃，其中包括取代特斯拉成為電動汽車世界冠軍。 大眾汽車公司在今年第一季度舉辦了“動力日”活動，并公布了建造6個“巨大工廠”的計劃，總產能為240吉瓦時/年。

　　?大眾汽車公司的目標是在2021年以后實現7%至8%的營業利潤。 大眾汽車公司還證實，該公司希望在2021年以5% - 6.5%的增幅結束今年的銷售。 據StreetInsider報道，該公司在第一季度表示，通過降低成本，將實現更高的盈利能力，與2020年相比，2023年將節省20億歐元。

　　迪斯當時在CNBC上表示：“這一時期可能是整個行業最關鍵的時期。 在未來的15年里，我們將看到這個行業的總營業額。 電動汽車正處于領先地位，然后軟設備真正成為行業的核心驅動力。“

　　迪斯說：“今天的電動汽車已經非常、非常有競爭力，而且隨著時間的推移，它們的競爭力會越來越強。 這讓我們確信，這是前進的正確道路。 實際上，電動汽車將進一步降低個人出行成本。”

　　大眾汽車公司當時還透露，它正在研發一款“新的同一標準的電池”，將于2023年推出。 迪斯說：“一種適用于幾乎所有電池設計的尺寸將從根本上降低電池成本。 比今天更便宜50%多的電池價格意味著未來電動汽車的售價將進一步下降，這使得電動汽車對消費者更具吸引力。”

　　Volkswagen CEO: EVs Will Be Cheaper Than ICE Vehicles In “2 To 3 Years”

　　Ever since the forced adoption of EVs by governments worldwide, all eyes have been on when the electric vehicles would finally make economic sense to produce.

　　According to Volkswagen, that milestone is still years away but is moving closer. CEO Herbert Diess said at the company's annual general meeting this week that its EVs would see margins at the same level of combustion cars "in two to three years".

　　The company also disclosed that its shift to EVs continues on schedule, as it delivered 170,939 all-electric vehicles in the first half of the year. This number is twice as many vehicles as the company delivered last year, according to Bloomberg.

　　Diess also stressed that electric mobility is seen as the "only way" to significantly reduce CO2 emissions in road traffic over the next 10 years.

　　And the company is now also incentivizing its board and executives for its "green" initiatives: Volkswagen adopted a new management board remuneration system that "includes ESG targets", Bloomberg commented.

　　Recall, back in March of this year, Volkswagen made its intentions of becoming a key player in EVs known, aspiring to compete with companies like Tesla.

　　At the time, the company laid out plans for expanding its EV offerings through 2030, which included dethroning Tesla as the reigning EV world champ. VW hosted its "Power Day" in Q1 and revealed plans to build six "gigafactories" with a total capacity of 240-gigawatt hours per year.

　　"The company is aiming to achieve an operating margin between 7% and 8% after 2021. VOW also confirmed it is looking to finish the year at the upper and of a 5% - 6.5% range in 2021. Higher profitability will be achieved through lower costs with as much as 2 billion euros savings identified for 2023 compared to 2020," the company said in Q1, according to StreetInsider.

　　Chief Executive Herbert Diess said on CNBC at the time: “This period is probably the most crucial for the whole industry. Within the next 15 years we will see a total turnover of the industry. Electric cars are taking the lead and then software really becomes the core driver of the industry.”

　　“Electric cars already today are very, very competitive and they’re becoming more competitive over time. that gives us the certainty that this is the right way going forward. Electric cars actually will bring down the cost of individual mobility further,” he continued.

　　VW also disclosed at the time that it was working on a "new unified battery cell" to be launched in 2023. Diess said: "The one size fits almost all cell design will radically reduce battery costs ... by up to 50% compared to today. Lower prices for batteries mean more affordable cars, which makes electric vehicles more attractive for customers."
