Current Market Demand
Electric mobility remains the largest growth market with opportunities in charging points and electric engines. Even though the fiscal stimulus offered by the Dutch government is reduced annually, the demand for electric cars continues to increase with a rise of 20.3 percent in market share from 2019 to 2020. Electric cars also benefit from a lower additional tax rate compared to cars with a combustion engine. The lower rate will be raised each year until 2026 when the additional tax rate is the same for all cars. Other eco friendly cars, including hybrids, no longer benefit from a lower additional tax.
