France and Germany push to weaken EU combustion engine ban
Original: motor de combustión
The Franco-German axis is pressing to soften the European Union's 2035 target of phasing out new combustion engine cars, according to reports citing a rollback of climate objectives to protect the European automotive industry. The debate has reignited controversy over whether Europe is prioritising carmakers' profits over its climate commitments, with critics accusing major governments of shielding manufacturers from green transition rules.
Why now: Reports that France and Germany want to dilute the EU's combustion engine phase-out are fuelling a fresh political fight over Europe's climate policy.
