E-mobility in Slovakia

Slovakia is a world leader in car production and its automotive industry is rapidly transforming towards electromobility and batteries. A shift away from fossil fuels is inevitable and the electro-mobility ecosystem has huge growth potential. Although EVs are rapidly gaining ground around the world, we have so far been unable to give them substantial political support or convince the general public of their benefits.

SEVA´s objectives include:

  • spreading awareness among the professional and general public
  • providing an overview of entities active in electromobility in Slovakia
  • supporting companies in the transition to electrified transport, and more.

The company claims to have resolved key manufacturing challenges and, with a more mature supply chain, expects electric vehicles to achieve a range of up to 600 km. Sodium-ion batteries are expected to offer a cheaper alternative to LFP and NMC cells. CATL highlights their cold-weather performance, lower reliance on rare raw materials, and the potential to replace 30 to 40% of today’s battery market. The technology currently has a weakness in energy density. carnewschina.com 🇬🇧

The automotive industry is entering the era of software-defined vehicles. SDVs are no longer just a technological trend; they are transforming the entire business model, the way value is created, and the competitive position of manufacturers within the global mobility ecosystem. However, the gaps between players are widening. Chinese companies are accelerating the development of their own technologies and building flexible software platforms, while many Western manufacturers remain tied to fragmented systems and external suppliers. alixpartners.com 🇬🇧

Volkswagen is launching Vehicle-to-Grid for households in Germany. Starting in the fourth quarter of 2026, electric vehicle owners will be able to not only charge their vehicles but also feed energy back into the grid. The solution integrates the car, charger, tariff plan, smart meter, and app into a single system. Volkswagen states that thanks to V2G, customers can achieve savings or earnings of up to €700 to €900 per year. The reward depends on the willingness to make the battery available to the energy market and to adjust charging according to the grid’s needs. volkswagen-group.com 🇬🇧

BMW will end production of internal combustion engine vehicles in Munich. Starting at the end of 2027, the main plant will produce exclusively electric vehicles, bringing to a close a 75-year era of combustion engine models. This is the first existing BMW plant to transition to fully electric production, with a €650 million investment in modernization. Electric vehicles already account for every other car rolling off the assembly line in Munich. bmwgroup.com 🇬🇧

Volvo CEO Håkan Samuelsson is clearly committed to electromobility. He argues that electric propulsion will prevail both technically and in the market, and that Volvo can only benefit in the long run. The brand’s goal is a complete transition to all-electric vehicles. According to him, “no regulation will stop the right technology,” and electrification will continue regardless of political debates. He believes carmakers must prepare for this inevitable change. wiwo.de 🇩🇪

Renault wants to make electric mobility accessible to the masses. The new electric Twingo is expected to cost less than €20,000, and according to the brand’s CEO, it will “disruptively” transform the market. The goal is to make affordable electric cars available to a wider group of customers. Renault has seen a sharp increase in demand for battery-powered vehicles in recent weeks, with sales in France nearly doubling. Customers are responding primarily to the lower operating costs of EVs. autogazette.de 🇩🇪
24. 4. 2026
Rising oil prices are once again boosting the appeal of electric vehicles. The conflict surrounding Iran has curtailed approximately 20% of global oil trade and triggered a sharp rise in fuel prices. History shows that such shocks shift driver behavior toward more fuel-efficient technologies, and electric vehicles are becoming increasingly competitive in this regard. Battery costs have fallen by about half compared to 2022, and total cost of ownership is already lower than that of combustion-engine cars in some cases. reuters.com 🇬🇧
