Volkswagen en General Motors gaan stilaan stoppen men hun (dure) hybride-modellen. En gaan zich enkel toeleggen op full-EVs.
Ook wegens de floppende PHEV-verkoopcijfers, en bovendien bepaalt vooral China de afzetmarkt. Daar is men verplicht tot 12% EVs te verkopen vooraleer men nog ICEs kwijt kan geraken.
Andere merken kunnen daarvan mss profiteren maar voor hoelang?

De verkoopstats maken dat ook duidelijk, BEV zetten zich steeds meer door of PHEVs verliezen steeds meer hun relatief marktaandeel, behalve enkele uitzonderingen mss.

Global Top 20 June 2019
BEVs grew faster than the plugin average (+104% vs 67%), allowing them to frankly outsell plugin hybrids, with all-electrics having 76% of the plugin market last month (73% in 2019). At this pace, it won't be long that PHEV's will be limited to less than 10% of the plugin market...

Heavy losses for PHEVs
H1 of 2019 marks a trend change: PHEV not only lost share in the EV mix, in H1 they also lost volume (-28 % vs H1 of 2018). We have noted this in Europe, too, when WLTP and reduced tax incentives for PHEVs caused the decline. Are the days of PHEVs counted sooner than expected? BEVs are the much likely end-game, with zero emission, design potential and cost reductions all superior to PHEVs. Today, PHEVs ease the transition to electrification for parts of the industry and consumers. They still make sense where duty cycles exceed BEV capabilities or when charging is not ensured.
These arguments become weaker, as new BEVs offer more range, power and versatility at constant or lower prices. GM axed the Volt partly by this reasoning. Many European PHEVs are being upgraded for the 2020 model-year, for longer e-range and lower test cycle emissions. This will recover some of their decline. Mid and long term, our view is that PHEVs will keep loosing share in the EV mix, not at least because of Tesla growth with Model-3 and Model-Y. For volumes they are likely to stay flat, or show small growth at best.

Bovendien krijgen PHEV met een te kleine batterij al helemaal geen fiscaal voordeel of premie meer. PHEVs hebben ook nog altijd dezelfde typische ICE-onderhoudskosten. Mensen kunnen rekenen.
Dan kan men evenzo van de kleinere batterijpacks grotere maken en van nul af aan degelijke BEVs maken. VW en GM beginnen eraan...
