REACTIONS

Within the past two weeks, the European Commission unveiled its Clean Industrial Deal and its Automotive Industry Action Plan – two key moments for the development of electric mobility and its industries in Europe. In this newsletter, several leaders of the Platform for Electromobility wished to quickly react to the Commission’s announcements.

While these are initial reactions (not necessarily reflecting the views of all members) they highlight key priorities and concerns. In the coming weeks, the Platform will consolidate detailed reactions and recommendations after consulting all members. Overall, the risk associated with technological neutrality from 2035 in road transport raises significant concerns. We believe this could prove fatal for the future of the European automotive industry. Find out why here.
