The European Union has proposed changes to a 2023 law that effectively banned the sale of new internal combustion engine cars from 2035. Instead of cutting CO2 emissions by 100% from 2021 levels, carmakers would be required to reduce them by 90%, meaning a small-scale production of petrol or hybrid cars could continue. The auto industry and some member states have been lobbying hard to get the rules relaxed in the face of slow market growth for EVs.
