EU considers allowing e-fuel combustion engines beyond 2035.

Germany has been leading the opposition to the European Union's ban on the sale of new cars with internal combustion engines starting in 2035. The country has now proposed a new vehicle category for cars exclusively run on carbon-neutral fuel, which would be exempt from the ban. The amendment would also mandate technology to prevent these engines from starting on traditional gasoline or diesel. The proposal will be presented by the European Commission in the coming weeks, and Germany has garnered the support of several other countries, including Italy, the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Hungary, and Slovakia.
