Production of hybrid cars is growing fast
In March, Slovakia exported hybrid vehicles worth €986m, which is only €106m less compared to exports of petrol cars, Eurostat data show. Exports of diesel cars were around €200m and exports of electric cars were only slightly lower. Hybrids are only a temporary solution; the future of the automotive industry in Slovakia depends on the transition to electric cars. The efforts of several parties, led by SaS, to reverse the ban on the sale of petrol and diesel cars from 2035 are just election campaigning, with no hope of success. Of 1m vehicles made by the four Slovak car plants last year, 16% were electrified, and hybrid production is growing rapidly this year.
