\nThe German government is extending a system of incentives to buy electric cars by 18 months until the end of 2020.<\/p>\n

\nThe program launched three years ago was supposed to expire at the end of June, but demand for electric cars has remained disappointing. It is backed by a 1.2 billion-euro ($1.3 billion) fund, half financed by the federal government and half by the auto industry.<\/p>\n

\nAnnouncing the extension on Friday, Economy Minister Peter Altmaier said that “we need continuity in support” for electric cars. The incentives will continue at their current level: buyers of purely electric cars will continue to get 4,000 euros and people buying plug-in hybrids will get 3,000 euros.<\/p>\n

\nAltmaier said applications for the incentives have been rising “but more slowly than we had hoped.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
