In a recent interview, Ferdinand Dudenhöffer, widely recognized as the German 'Godfather of Automobiles,' emphasized that Europe lags approximately two decades behind China in the realm of battery technology. He underscored the necessity for Germany to promptly pivot towards China, leveraging batteries sourced from Chinese suppliers to compensate for its current shortcomings. Dudenhöffer highlighted the significant positive impact that investments from Chinese automotive firms have had on Europe's automotive landscape. Specifically, citing lithium-ion batteries as a prime example, he noted that companies like CATL and Gotion High-Tech have played a pivotal role in bolstering the production of electric vehicles across Europe.
