EV Laggards Italy & Honda Talk Smack About EV Transition Targets

The two companies argue that the European Union’s ambitious EV targets are unrealistic and will harm the auto industry.

Italy and Honda have criticized the European Union’s ambitious plans to transition to electric vehicles (EVs). The two companies argued that the EU’s targets are unrealistic and will harm the auto industry.

The EU has set a goal of banning the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2035. This goal is part of the EU’s Green Deal, which aims to make the EU climate-neutral by 2050.

Italy and Honda argue that the EU’s targets are unrealistic. They say that the EU is not doing enough to support the development of EV charging infrastructure. They also say that the EU is not taking into account the cost of EVs for consumers.

The auto industry is a major employer in Italy and Japan. Italy and Honda are concerned that the EU’s EV targets will lead to job losses in the auto industry.

The EU has defended its EV targets. The EU says that the targets are necessary to meet the EU’s climate goals. The EU also says that the targets will help to create jobs in the EV industry.

The debate over the EU’s EV targets is likely to continue. The EU is determined to meet its climate goals, but Italy and Honda are concerned about the impact of the EU’s targets on the auto industry.

The EU is moving forward with its plans to transition to electric vehicles. The EU has set a goal of banning the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2035. This goal is part of the EU’s Green Deal, which aims to make the EU climate-neutral by 2050.

The EU is not alone in its efforts to transition to electric vehicles. China, the world’s largest auto market, has also set a goal of banning the sale of new petrol and diesel cars by 2035.

The transition to electric vehicles is a major challenge, but it is also a necessary one. Electric vehicles are more efficient than petrol and diesel cars, and they produce zero emissions. This makes them a key part of the fight against climate change.
