CSU Chairman and Bavarian Minister President Markus Söder expects the new EU Commission to reverse the ban on the combustion engine. „Today’s combustion engines are different to those of ten or 20 years ago,“ said Söder in the Table.Today podcast from Table.Briefings. „Well over 90 percent of cars worldwide are still powered by combustion engines. We would be unwise and stupid if we didn’t lift the ban.“
