The much -praised green deal of the EU will no longer be: Tuesday afternoon the EU committee published its decision to suspend the already decided, terrible fines for European car companies for three years. Above all, the reason not to weaken the European competitiveness.
BMW, Fiat, VW, Renault & Co. Had this year alone threatened 16 billion euros in penalties because they can or can not only satisfy the hard CO₂ requirements of the EU. In 2026 and 2027, another billion euros would be due.
The EU president -President Ursula von der Leyen, who is under pressure, now wants to give caregivers more time to meet the EU requirements. She would propose a targeted change in CO₂ standards, she said in Brussels. Instead of the annual compliance with the limit values, companies will get three years. The committee also wants to offer 1.8 billion euros for a safe and competing supply chain for battery sources.
Europe under pressure
The background of the approaching fines for the battered industry are the like that -related fleet limit values. These legal requirements were tightened at the beginning of the year. An average of the CO₂ emissions of the cars produced is measured.
On average of all vehicles approved in the EU in one year, this limit may not be exceeded. In 2024 it was 115.1 grams of CO₂ per kilometer, per vehicle based on the so-called WLTP test procedure. Before 2025 it is 93.6 grams and is expected to fall to 49.5 grams in 2030.
The manufacturers must pay a fine for too much CO₂. Because the sale for electric cars has not developed so well and previously predicted, car manufacturers can exceed the limit values.
As reported, the European car industry is under pressure. It sees itself exposed to increasing competition from China, but the American car manufacturer Tesla also disputes European companies in the E-Car market. This industry is crucial for the EU economy and especially in the Germany car country.
“The Proposal is Far from Enough. I am Noticed that we use the ordinary Majority to the Right of the Middle to Decide oncoming Revision, FIRSTLY, The Measurement Method That also Includes CO₂ Emissions in The Manufacture of the Fuel and not the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and notthacture of the Fuel and the Fuel and the Fuel and Not. To Orientate Them Technical and Economically and Do Not Dream of Any Greens, “Says the Person Responsible,” Says the Person Responsible, “EU MP Roman Haider (FPö) to the” Krone “.
