Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder at a conference of the Christian Social Union (CSU) on Saturday called for a ban on the registration of cars with internal combustion engines in Germany from 2035, similar to a plan by the US state of California.
He stated that Germany should also set a date on this issue and he likes the way this date has been set in California. “This could mark the end of the era of fossil fuels in GermanyAdded.
This decision could also have a serious impact on the Hungarian economy, as some of the internal combustion engines are manufactured in Hungary. Last year, Continental cut its investment precisely because of falling demand for gasoline and diesel cars.
California Governor Gavin Newsom announced Wednesday that gasoline, diesel and hybrid cars will be phased out in the state in 2035 to combat climate change.
For the rest of the time, however, Söder reiterated his earlier idea of having some state support for the purchase of cars equipped with the best quality internal combustion engines. (SZ / MTI)
