VW Group head of research says its time for electrification, but progress has been extremely low; We need more

Green Car Congress

” In the 1970s Volkswagen had put two electric cars on the market, but sales figures were in the two-digit numbers, Leohold said. What has changed the business mainly is that Li-ion batteries have come around and finally supported an energy density that allows you to build a halfway decent car. So what has changed?
