BMW CEO Oliver Zipse has expressed strong criticism regarding the EU's planned ban on internal combustion engine vehicles starting in 2035, describing it as a "disaster" for the industry and innovation. He believes the current framework disproportionately focuses on emissions at the tailpipe rather than considering the entire lifecycle of vehicles, including supply chains and production processes.
Zipse anticipates that the EU may revise its stringent regulations by 2028, citing slower-than-expected growth in electric vehicle adoption and an over-reliance on subsidies. He emphasizes a technology-neutral approach, advocating for a variety of solutions to reduce CO2 emissions, with a particular focus on hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. BMW plans to launch such vehicles by 2028, reinforcing its commitment to achieving carbon neutrality by 2050.
The VDA, Germany's automotive industry association, also supports softening the EU's internal combustion engine ban, suggesting a reduction target of 90% for CO2 emissions instead of an outright ban. This ongoing debate highlights the complexity of transitioning to sustainable transport while balancing innovation and industry viability.
