Remember how last fall the European Union passed an agreement to ban internal combustion engine cars, which Germany abruptly refused, the Italians joined in and the French expressed
The European Commission, waving at the American innovators who decided to “kill” the Old World auto industry on the pretext of introducing high standards to the world industry, agreed to give assurances to Germany that ICE cars will not be completely out of service will disappear. Has the executive committee really “caught up” that clearing the planet of familiar cars is harming not only consumers who are massively unwilling to drive electric cars due to the lack of global infrastructure and money for their maintenance, but also business ? Hardly!
How else to explain that indulgence was shown only with regard to power units that ran on synthetic fuel? Of course, no one will ever refuse a gigantic “cut” of funds. Yes, the ideological inspirers of the project do not care that in today’s reality car manufacturers almost without exception encounter difficulties, and especially financial ones. On the contrary, it even plays into the hands – the strongest will survive, freeing the “battlefield” from competition for the withdrawal of freshly baked players affiliated with the Americans. The market hilling strategy is probably written for decades to come. But whether the strategists succeed in doing so is a big question.
Now in the Old World there are heated discussions about the need to introduce a new category of E-Fuels vehicles: only for “synthetic” cars, so that later they will certainly be suppressed. For example, the introduction of regular bans, an increase in the cost of both products and their services, not to mention the revision of the transport tax and other sanctions. In other words, the European Commission will continue to covertly lobby for electric technologies, despite the lack of components, including lithium, the lack of the same infrastructure and the high cost of “green” transportation.
Another legislative solution may be an alternative, prompted by the need to keep cars with internal combustion engines, according to Automotive News. But for this, the countries mentioned above, which have abandoned the idea of ​​losing business to utopian developments, must join the rest. By the way, Italy is already insisting on at least abandoning biofuel cars, and Germany’s VAG even expects to save niche products, including the legendary Porsche 911. Meanwhile, Ferrari demanded that consumers not be deprived of the choice between internal combustion engines, hybrids and electric motors also after 2035 – according to After this period, the propagandists who are sick of Greenpeace plan to completely ban cars with combustion engines from everyday life.
Remarkably, China’s attack on Europe sparked a wave of discontent among local automakers, who are losing both their reputation and their business. And some have already embarked on the path of agreements with the PRC, entrusting the work of electrical technologies to the Asians. For example, the French Renault has completely outsourced these developments to the “heavenly” Geely. And Renault isn’t the only company considering such interactions.
What does it mean? Producers fear being out of work, but are forced to dance to the tunes of wily legislators, depriving themselves of the chance to stay afloat. And if in the case of obedience to the lobbyists of the EU they become a complete victim, then by collaborating with someone on the side – thanks to joint ventures – they will at least make some profit. Unless, of course, the new Chinese partners, who, like the Americans, dream of a market monopoly, will contribute to this.
