A policy, that of the EU, aimed at giving a “green turn” to combat the objective environmental decay that our planet is having
Dietrofront. Now full alignment with the wishes of the European Commission, which has long wanted the end of the production of internal combustion engines from 2035. In the end, the announcement by the Minister of the Environment changed what was the initial position.
In fact, we have been recording for months the diktats coming from Brussels. The automotive market has substantially aligned (or, perhaps, resigned) to the intransigence of Europe, which has 2035 the deadline for the abandonment of internal combustion engines. A policy, that of the EU, aimed at giving a “green turn” to combat the objective environmental decay that our planet is having.
After the initial resistance, the car manufacturers are making the best of a bad situation. And it is a continuation of announcements about the conversion, about new models coming. Sometimes even with dates in advance of the times pleasing to Europe.
Now, however, too one of the most important countries of the Eurozone is adapting. In fact, changing what had been the line announced just a few weeks ago.
Stop al 2035
Germany therefore adheres to the Fit for 55 climate planbanning thermal engines from 2035. A change of course for the German government which, on the other hand, seemed absolutely determined to keep the bar straight.
The decision was announced by the Minister of the Environment, Steffi Lemke who, in fact, denies and overcomes the position taken a short time ago by his colleague, Minister of Transport, Volker Wissing. For environmentalists, the one decided by the German government is an important element of clarity on which direction the European automotive industry should take.

In fact, from many parts the Italian government is asked to follow the path outlined by Germany, with the end of the sale of cars with internal combustion engines. In short, for many the era of the internal combustion engine must be closed without reservations. Rolling up our sleeves to accelerate the transition to fleet electrification.
But, at the moment, our country is sailing on sight. The minister for the energy transition, Roberto Cingolani, in fact, has so far defined the date of 2035 only as indicative. But the pressures are many. Also because, according to data from the public body ISPRA (Higher Institute for Environmental Protection and Research), in 2019 road transport was responsible for 23.4% of total national CO2 emissions (68.7% of these loading of cars).
