The European Commission unveiled a plan on Tuesday to drop the EU’s effective ban on new combustion-engine cars from 2035 after pressure from the region’s auto sector, marking the bloc’s biggest retreat from its green policies in recent years.
The move, which still needs approval from EU governments and the European Parliament, would allow continued sales of some non-electric vehicles. Carmakers in regional industrial powerhouse Germany and in Italy had sought easing of the rules.
The EU executive appears to have bowed to calls from carmakers to keep selling plug-in hybrids and range extenders that burn fuel as they struggle to compete against Tesla, opens new tab and Chinese electric vehicle makers.
Yall missing the point!
EVs have many flaws. They are not the future.
What all this means is enforced :
. Slavery
. Poverty
. Complete loss of privacy
All of which has nothing to do with what engine is in the car.
Perfect is the enemy of good.
Just because something has flaws doesn’t make it bad.
Things are relative. They are better than ICE counterparts for the environment, saying any different is ignoring a mountain of data and evidence to push propaganda.
