Are you wondering whether the purchase of an e-car is worthwhile for you?
Calculate your own individual answer with our calculator. With just a few clicks, you have an overview of the costs and emissions and can adapt it to your personal situation.
Climate protection and sustainability are also important topics in the field of mobility. The classic combustion engine is getting strong competition from new electric cars so that the question “gasoline or diesel?” has been expanded to include the answer “electricity”. The state supports this trend with various subsidies and thus promotes electromobility. Nevertheless, electric cars are currently still considered more expensive than combustion engines, so sustainability is often equated with higher costs. But is that true?
Our e-mobility calculator takes this very point as its starting point and shows that environmental protection no longer has to be a question of money, but that in many cases e-cars are already financially worthwhile after a short time.
We have developed the E-Calculator primarily intending to clearly present the costs of electromobility in various vehicle classes with comparable combustion engines. Each of these classes is the average of at least three models. In total, values from almost 50 different vehicles were included in the calculations. It was particularly important to us that users could arrive at a good result with just a few clicks, but could also refine it further. All values, from price to consumption and electricity costs to taxes, can be changed and adjusted by the user. This creates an individual result.
In the second step, we set ourselves the goal of comparing the emissions of internal combustion engines with those of e-cars. These are often referred to as zero-emission vehicles, but if you look at the entire life cycle of the cars, from production to use to recycling, this is not necessarily true. We claim to provide our users with sound information on the emissions generated at all stages. That’s why we’ve done detailed research and considered a variety of sources. As a result, you can see exactly after how many years the carbon footprint of an e-car becomes positive.
You can also offer the e-mobility calculator service to visitors of your website. Together with you, we develop a version completely adapted to your needs and matched to your design. Even after implementation, we support you with updates and ensure that regulatory changes (e.g. new subsidies) are taken into account in the e-calculator.
One of our first partners is the “Automobilclub von Deutschland (AvD)”, which uses our e-calculator to provide its members with concrete answers to the financial and ecological questions surrounding the topic of e-cars.
If you are also interested in our e-mobility calculator, please contact us. We will be happy to provide you with an overview and present the various possibilities for cooperation.

Are there also positive aspects of CSRD for companies? Can the new rules serve as a driver of innovation and motivate managers to drive forward the sustainable transformation of their companies? Together with the Centre for Sustainable Transformation (zNT), we are addressing this question as part of a study.
On 22 and 23 April, the German Banking Day took place in Berlin’s Westhafen. Consileon was of course on board.
