Europe is backing down on its intention to ban the sale of combustion vehicles by 2035
The slowdown in demand for electric cars, pressure from the sector and competition from China have led the European Commission to take the decision: it will authorise 'limited' combustion car production from 2035.
The European Union has reversed and finally lifted the veto on combustion engines: the intention was to ban the sale of cars with combustion engines by 2035 and to reduce emissions by 100%, but Brussels has yielded to pressure from manufacturers and reluctant countries.
In view of the situation in the automotive sector, the EU is committed to flexibility. The average emissions will be reduced by 90% and 10% of sales will be authorised for vehicles emitting CO2. Electric cars will therefore have to live with plug-in hybrids, biofuels and those manufactured with so-called green steel.
"We have full confidence in the industry in implementing measures to achieve total decarbonization," said EU Vice-President Stephane Sejourne at a press conference this afternoon.
On the other hand, the European Union has announced an investment of EUR 1.8 billion to boost the European battery industry.
