Today, in our fall preview, we focus on EU transport policy. A swift agreement is expected between the EU Parliament and the Council on the proposals to phase out internal combustion engines in 2035 and tighten CO2 fleet limits for passenger cars and light commercial vehicles. The situation is likely to be different with regard to the dossier on the development of a public charging infrastructure (AFIR). The Commission’s pending proposals, such as for pollutant regulation in transport (Euro 7) and CO2 fleet regulation for heavy-duty vehicles, are eagerly awaited. Markus Grabitz provides an overview of the timetables and possible lines of conflict.
