[Original by Dongchedi Industry] On October 28, according to foreign media reports such as Reuters, Bloomberg, etc., The European Commission, the EU Parliament and member states reached an agreement on Thursday to ban the production of new fuel vehicles from 2035.
EU three major institutions reached an agreement: ban the production of brand new fuel vehicles from 2035
According to reports, the EU is trying to reshape the EU's transportation picture through this important measure. The agreement requires EU automakers to achieve zero emission targets by 2035 , and also requires the EU to cut carbon emissions by 55% over the next decade and set a goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.
Currently, in the EU, automobiles account for about 12% of the proportion of carbon dioxide emissions, while the transportation sector accounts for about one-quarter of the overall carbon dioxide emissions.
According to the plan, EU member states must include the 2035 ban on the production of new fuel vehicles in national laws. However, existing vehicles will not be prohibited.
Actual vehicles will not be banned
It is worth noting that in a report released by the International Energy Agency (IEA) recently called for the ban on the sale of gasoline and diesel vehicles worldwide by 2035. In addition, the International Energy Agency also believes that countries should agree on a timetable to decide when all new cars should achieve zero emissions.

Report says that by 2021, the proportion of all vehicles in new energy vehicles will only be slightly higher than 1%, but by 2030, this proportion needs to rise to 20-25%, so that the world can be on track to achieve climate goals.
UK plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2030, and some hybrid cars are allowed in addition. The EU sets the time point in 2035. In 2021, global sales of new energy vehicles reached a record 6.6 million, twice the previous year.
