Vehicle industry in Germany post pandemic
The German car manufacturing industry, which is the largest in Europe, declined in both value and volume terms over the historic period. The industry suffered a particularly steep decline in 2020 amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The industry looks set to recover in the forecast period. Like much of the rest of Europe, car sharing start-ups have dented growth in Germany’s sales, as an increasing number of Germans, especially those belonging to the younger segments of society, opt to share vehicles rather than purchase their own due to financial restraints or environmental reasons. Car2Go, which is owned by Daimler AG, is a prime example of a successful car sharing platform that has cemented its position, especially in the urban centers of Germany.
