Alex Vanopslagh criticized the Moderates and the Radicals for what he perceived as a contrast between their election promises regarding electric cars and electricity taxes and the government's plans. He wrote that the Moderates had offered free charging for an hour and a half at selected charging stations during the election campaign, and that at an event in Køge, there had been more press and party staff than interested motorists. According to Vanopslagh, the Radicals had promised to abolish the registration tax so that electric cars would not become more expensive from 2027. He also wrote that both parties had supported making the low electricity tax permanent, and that a spokesman for the Moderates had called it an optimal tool for the green transition. Vanopslagh wrote that the government would raise the tax on electric cars starting from New Year's. According to him, a VW ID.4 Style would incur about 10,300 kroner more in registration tax. He furthermore claimed that the government would raise the electricity tax again in 2028, even though it had contributed to Danish households having some of the highest electricity prices in the EU. He wrote that the Liberal Alliance had advocated for a permanent reduction of the electricity tax and a significant reduction of the registration tax before and after the election. #elpolitikk #valgt2023 #grønneomstilling (translated)
