Hello,
my name is Michael, I live in Duisburg, close to Cologne in Germany.

I ordered my Honda E in June just as the German goverment had increase the the e-mobile bonus to 6000 Euro.
Today the car is in transit, somethere on the ocean. I hope I will have it beginning of November.

Hello Michael, willkommen!

Congrats on your purchase, and well done Germany for raising the bonus.

6000 euros? Nice. Puts the U.K. to shame.

Welcome to the forum.

And the big question - which colour did you order?

Welcome.

The UK has been reducing the PICG grant over previous years, I suspect if will be reduced by at least £500/year in future.
That's one reason along with the OLEV grant (£350) towards an EVSE installation that I pulled the trigger on the Honda, because it won't be long before all government EV grants are withdrawn.
Also it won't be too long before the DNOs start rejecting home EVSE installs when the local infrastructure can't cope with the increased demand.

Yes, well done, that would have been shortly after the UK government REDUCED our grant. :roll:
