The European Union seems very determined to ban the sale of internal combustion engine vehicles. According to the latest statements, even if synthetic fuel cars are allowed, the sale of internal combustion engine vehicles could still be prohibited. How will this situation unfold? What are the major car brands saying about it? Here are the details on the battle between internal combustion engines and electric motors…
BMW CEO: Even if Synthetic Fuels Are Allowed, the Sale of Internal Combustion Engines Could Be Practically Banned!
The European Union has completed its preparations to ban the sale of new internal combustion engine cars between 2022 and 2035. The discussions and announcements indicate that the decision is final. However, there are some exceptions.
Germany, which holds a significant influence in the automotive sector, along with other EU members with large car industries, continues to raise objections. The European Union is under considerable pressure, as these countries are pushing for the law to be somewhat relaxed, allowing vehicles with internal combustion engines to remain in production through the use of synthetic fuels.

In addition to governments, major brands are also taking various steps. For instance, Mercedes-Benz and Audi have set final dates for their gasoline engines. However, brands like BMW, which have built their prestige on their engines and driving dynamics, have not yet set a definitive timeline.
BMW CEO Oliver Zipse issued a warning, stating that while the EU might theoretically relax the rule by allowing synthetic fuels, it could still cause significant problems for major European manufacturers. He also emphasized that the solution is not to ban engines but rather to prohibit environmentally harmful fuels and transition to synthetic alternatives.
Meanwhile, the EU is maintaining a firm stance on this issue, pushing for an accelerated shift to electric vehicles. Manufacturers, on the other hand, are trying to slow down or even alter this transition as much as possible.
