Volkswagen says there’s no point in discussing the ban of combustion engines.
The company’s sales, marketing, and after-sales boss believes people will realize that EVs are just better than gas cars.
Martin Sander said that horses were never banned, but people still chose gas cars for transportation because they were simply better.
People will find out that electric cars are better than gas-powered vehicles, just like people quickly realized that gas cars are plainly better than horses for travel. That’s what Martin Sanders, Volkswagen’s board member for sales, marketing, and after-sales, said, referring to the constant talk about the potential gas engine ban in Europe.
In a recent interview with AutoExpress, Sanders cheekily asked: “Do you know when horses were banned? When was it forbidden to buy horses?” Volkswagen’s sales boss explained that people can still buy horses today, but that everybody realized at some point that it’s easier to use a gas car to go from point A to point B.
