The Counselor is of the opinion that the dedication to the electric vehicle “does not work” and commit to “new formulas without giving up the goal or emissions.” “The road is technological neutrality,” he says.
The Minister of Industry of the Basque government, Mikel JaureegiHas the new rates shown by the United States to cars, which “a turn” regards more in its “chaotic commercial war” and that will “influence” the Basque automotive sector.
