In an effort to hasten the switch to electric vehicles, the European Parliament has approved a rule that will forbid the sale of new gas and diesel cars in the European Union beginning in 2035. The new rule prohibits the sale of any new fossil fuelpowered automobiles in the 27country bloc because it requires a 100% reduction in carbon dioxide emissions from newly purchased vehicles. However, since the regulation was first proposed in July 2021, a few automakers, business leaders, and nations have voiced their opposition to the EU. The final agreement, which was approved on Tuesday, contains flexibility, including a provision allowing small automakers who produce fewer than 10,000 vehicles annually to bargain for softer standards until 2036.
