Belgium is currently putting all of its efforts into encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles. Despite the market pressures caused by the COVID-19 outbreak, electric vehicle sales in Belgium continue to climb.
Various schemes, ranging from tax incentives to the prohibition of polluting automobiles, have been implemented by regional governments to facilitate this increase in sales. There has also been significant investment in the country’s EV infrastructure.
The Belgium Electric Car Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2026, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2027.
The advent of a model that will revolutionise the dynamic impression of electrically driven vehicles has been verified by CUPRA. The CUPRA Born’s performance and dynamics were prioritised during development, with a 2.9-second acceleration time from 0 to 50 kilometres per hour.
The DCC Sport (Dynamic Chassis Control Sport), which was designed particularly for the CUPRA Born on the MEB platform, combines the car’s sporty driving height with a system that adapts automatically to any conditions, providing a greater degree of driving dynamics.
The C40 Recharge, Volvo’s second BEV, debuts in Belgium. The XC40 Recharge, Volvo’s BEV version of its award-winning compact CUV, is also produced at Volvo’s Ghent facility, which is one of the company’s largest.
The company intends to build BEVs at the Belgian plant. The C40 Recharge is the automaker’s second battery-electric vehicle, with more to follow in the coming years.
The C40 Recharge’s engine consists of two electric motors, one on the front axle and the other on the rear axle, each powered by a 78-kWh battery that can be charged from 10% to 80% in around 40 minutes, according to the manufacturer. It is expected to have a range of roughly 261 miles.
Chinese e-car maker Aiways and Cardoen, the company’s exclusive sales and service partner in Belgium, have collaborated to jointly exhibit Aiways’s U5 model at Cardoen’s showroom in Wilrijk, close to Antwerp, in response to the country’s growing demand for long-range electric vehicles.
The Shanghai-based startup introduced the U5, a small sport utility vehicle (SUV) powered entirely by batteries, to the European market. The most recent agreement with Aiways gives Cardoen, the biggest online auto retailer in Belgium, more confidence.
In Belgium, the amount of tax deductions for gasoline and diesel vehicles used for commercial reasons will be gradually reduced. The deductibility rates will be reduced to 0%.Only expenses for brand-new electric vehicles that are zero-emission company vehicles would be entirely tax deductible.
This rate would eventually decline until it was below 70%. Since just cars are being regulated, the measures do not apply to freight vehicles. Nai Tongtao, chief marketing representative at Cardoen Autosupermarkt, predicted that the market would expand as a result.
Aiways may become the first Chinese automaker to enter the European e-car market as a result of prioritising compliance with European requirements.
Over a thousand vehicles have been exported by Aiways to the Middle East and the European Union thus far. The U5 model is already available for purchase in Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Israel, and Switzerland.
Soon, it will also be available in Denmark, Norway, and Switzerland.
