The European Union reached a deal to effectively ban new combustion-engine cars from 2035, a move that will reshape transportation and mark a significant step on the path to reduce carbon emission, APA reports citing Europe. autonews.
The EU's three key institutions -- its executive arm, the parliament and member states -- agreed to a deal on Thursday that will require automakers to reach a zero-emission target by 2035.
The decision means that new gasoline and diesel cars will not be registered for use on the region's roads after 2035. It will speed up the switch to full-electric vehicles.
The deal also included a 55 percent cut in CO2 emissions for new cars sold from 2030 versus 2021 levels, much higher than the existing target of a 37.5 percent reduction by then.
