Germany is the inventor of the gas engine and diesel engine but now Germany’s Bundesrat wants the internal combustion engine prohibited from 2030. The resolution by among Germany’s two legal bodies (comparable to the US Senate or British House of Lords) isn’t really binding, but it had bipartisan support. It recommends the days of the internal combustion engine vehicle are limited.
Other code expressions in the resolution, as soon as understood, suggest Germany wishes to roll back tax credits favoring diesel motor vehicles, and push for more incentives to ramp up the sales of electrical vehicles.
