Following the launch of our #Audi Q6 e-tron in Latvia and Lithuania, last week’s Impact day festival in Tallinn was the perfect opportunity to repeat our key message: “the Future is Electric”. It was also the opportunity to expand on how to reach our target of developing electro-mobility in the Baltic States by reducing the transition time from ICE to BEV: 👔 Policy – Illustrating best and worse practice, from Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Germany, we insisted on the need for: 1️⃣ Stable, long term environmental policies 2️⃣ Incentives for EVs 3️⃣ Implement policies supporting the Green shift Moller Baltic Import via its active participation in the Baltic Sustainable Mobility Alliance is ready to support environmental policy making. 🔋 Charging Infrastructure – With over 1000 DC & 1000 AC Charging points pan-baltic, representing 11x EVs per Charge point by end 2024, the Baltic countries are in a good position to support the development of the EV car park. Our Dealer Network offers over 100 plugs, available via Volkswagen WeCharge and Audi Charging, ranging from 11kW AC to 300kW DC, and we are in close contact with the largest CPOs to support them in their continual development. Moller Baltic Import does its part as a representative of Volkswagen Group by securing: 📚 Training - for our service and sales personal of the future, having certified close to 100 High Voltage Technicians, offering relevant OEM training to all Volkswagen Group Brands in Baltic States, and made compulsory EV Driving Experience for our Dealers sales staff. 📖 Education - Raising awareness, taking time to dismantle myths and fake news is critical to success. To support this we participate in and organise our own webinars, we join events such as #ImpactDay and are active in customer engagement by offering EV test drives. We even now offer our EV Driving Experience day as a Team building experience for your company! #Impactday was also a golden opportunity to challenge attendees. Indeed by sharing our own experience, we also reminded the importance of: 🔌 Offering charging infrastructure to your employees. It’s a lot easier and cheaper than you think. Many AC solutions are available on the market, offering a vast range of smart services. 🚘 Electrifying your company car park. Here too, from a Total Cost of Ownership point of view this is a smart move, as EVs are cheaper to run than ICE. 👛 Finally, we invited everyone to either test drive an EV, informing than as our employees most of our customers do not go back to ICE once they made the switch, or come and join our EV Drving Experience Team Building. Thank you Erkki for inviting us to #ImpactDay and Rugilė for the challenging questions.
