Our Future Mobility Now is about the future of mobility in all its forms, such as on how each of us will live, travel, work & play in the 21st century. Join us!
In 2023, the battery-electric car market share reached 14.6%. The adoption of zero-emission #vehicles on a massive scale must go hand in hand with suitable charging networks, stable grids, and affordable and sustainable #electricity prices.
Join Luca de Meo, ACEA President and CEO of Renault Group and Leo Birnbaum, President of Eurelectric and CEO of E.ON at @Eurelectric #EVision event to hear about the synergies needed between European vehicle manufacturers and the power sector to make the transition to climate neutral mobility.

European #truck and #bus manufacturers welcome the political agreement on CO2 standards agreed by trilogue negotiators today πͺπΊ
Failure to reach an agreement could have caused potential uncertainty by pushing back negotiations until the EUβs next mandate.
The revised #CO2 standards undoubtedly set the most ambitious targets globally, especially with respect to 2030.
Target compliance for manufacturers relies on vital enabling conditions such as carbon pricing measures and charging and hydrogen refilling networks suitable for heavy-duty vehicles.
Decarbonising heavy-duty #transport is a shared responsibility involving policy makers and other industries, as well as truck and bus makers.
With less than six years left before the significantly strengthened 2030 target, much more must be done to incentivise transport operators to shift rapidly to zero-emission vehicles ππ
π’ DAF Trucksβ Harald Seidel to lead Board of Europeβs truck and bus manufacturers.
2024 will be a game-changing year for the European truck industry, with multiple legislative files on the table in the run-up to the EU elections and beyond.
ππ Truck manufacturers are already investing billions into new battery-electric and hydrogen-powered models, but Seidel emphasised that Europe must get the enabling conditions right to rapidly decarbonise heavy-duty #transport:
π£οΈ Charging and hydrogen refilling infrastructure
πΆ Effective carbon pricing schemes
π Support measures for transport operators to replace conventional #vehicles with zero-emission models

πͺπΊ Europe needs a proportionate Euro 7 that balances environmental concerns and industrial competitiveness ππ§βπ
#Euro7 poses significant difficulties for manufacturers, which come on top of a historic transformation and an extraordinarily challenging economic environment leading to unforeseen costs:
β‘οΈ persistent semiconductor shortages
β‘οΈ disruptions to chip supplies
β‘οΈ inflationary pressures
β‘οΈ soaring energy prices
β‘οΈ consumer demand trailing pre-pandemic levels
In these challenging circumstances and faced with increasingly fierce competition from other global regions, policy makers must also safeguard European industrial competitiveness.
ππππ Replacing older #vehicles with the latest Euro 6 models, together with rapid electrification, offers far greater benefits both for the environment and industrial competitiveness. A disproportionate Euro 7 risks derailing the progress already made by manufacturers.
