The EU's latest statement insists on its plan to ban the sale of new fuel vehicles in 2035.

Starting from 2035, the EU will completely ban the production of new fuel vehicles.

Starting from 2035, the EU will completely ban the production of new fuel vehicles. According to EU statistics, transportation accounts for about 25% of its overall emissions. Therefore, promoting the popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) and hydrogen fuel vehicles is the core of the EU's strategy in reducing emissions. Major automakers have begun to accelerate their transition to electrification, with many companies announcing that they will significantly increase investment and research and development of electric models in the next few years. Take German automaker Volkswagen as an example. The company aims to launch multiple electric models by 2030 and expects the proportion of electric vehicles in its model lineup to increase significantly by 2035.

In the past November, Norway has officially announced that it will completely stop the sale of new fuel vehicles in 2025, becoming the first country in the world to plan to stop the sale of new fuel vehicles, which has attracted global attention.

In order to achieve this goal, Norway is vigorously building charging infrastructure across the country, constantly dismantling gas stations to install charging piles, and even starting to use electric vehicles in remote rural areas and nursing homes. This not only changed the Norwegian automobile market structure, but also promoted the development of multiple electric vehicle brands including Tesla.​

Another source pointed out that BYD has stopped producing fuel vehicles as early as 2023. Changan Automobile announced that it will stop selling fuel vehicles in 2025. Dongfeng Honda also stated that it will completely stop the production of fuel vehicles in 2027.

For this reason, it is foreseeable that the gradual withdrawal of traditional fuel vehicles is an irreversible global trend.
