Sorry but I have to say either you try to mislead people by purpose or you are not well informed.
Neither, recheck your own facts pls.
Given the very high gas prices in German the better efficiency of the 3 versus every ICE car and BTW that you do not pay anything for free in the first 6 month to claim you have just 1€ better TCO per 100km is, sorry I have to use that word, ridiculous and is against ever informed statement or fact and calculation.
0,63€/l LPG => 10l/100km 6,3€
1,30€/l Diesel => 7l/100km 9,1€
0,27€/kwh => 25kwh/100km 6,75€
All my cars have been running on LPG since the 2000s and so do my company cars. I gave the 1€ saving only because of the LPG adaption costs.
The only category where an EV is considerably cheaper in fuel is if you switch from a big standard petrol engine.
There you have it, you don`t know what you are talking about.
Another point, you tax and pay 1% of the new sales value of every company car which easily can be 2- 400 € every month (I paid usually € 350) and if you look at the low interest rate you are better of with many EVs even if you buy and finance them versus lease with an another cheap option. Thats a question how much you can pay up front what interest rate you get, what car you choose and other. So sorry but that company car statement makes no sense and I have been using company cars for the majority of my driving live.
Ofc the E class would be more expensive per month but you get a completely different class of car. And for the jump the price difference is neglegible. Or I could simply get a fully stuffed 3 Series or C Class for less!
This is about bang for buck and there the 3 isn`t attractive with the current pricing model if you`re not bent on an EV.
I understand the hype Tesla generated especially when I look at the pricing in the US market, had a Model 3 reservation myself for almost 2 years, but at least here in germany with the massive rebates we get on the german brands the model 3 just doesn`t seem attractive anymore.
LR RWD for ~50k would`ve been okayish, but not forced AWD for 60k.
EVs are a must have if you want that your children and childrens children have still an environment they can live a happy and healthy life in. There is not a lot that is a must on earth but clean air that you can breathe without getting sick and die is one of them.
I don`t care. , also if you want to change something adress the meat and agriculture industry first....
I believe I have to pull back from my above statement and say I am rather convinced now that you state wrong information here by purpose. Others tried that before but please realize this forum is well known for testing every posters statement in depth.
Please understand that I do no reply further.
ofc I understand that. guys like you don`t like it when it people point out that you`re trying to sell your opinion as "facts".
