It's not discussed much, but N-TV brought up the topic and some Germans will act surprised. By 2035 (14 years away), the EU has a regulation that says all gas/diesel cars will be forbidden from roads.
The topic has been on my mind a bit.
Personally, I don't see how this will occur.
E-cars being in the majority by 2030? Unless they drop the price by a radical amount......I don't see this majority situation existing.
All this pro-E-car and EU vision....mostly working only in urbanized areas? That's another part of the discussion. There are dozens of areas around Germany....fairly rural in nature, and attracting people.
The trend of people to move out of the urbanized areas (like Bremen or Hamburg)? Over the past twenty years.....the trend has existed. People don't want the urbanized landscape that much, and are willing to drive forty to sixty kilometers to achieve happiness.....on a daily basis.
What happens to historical cars? No one ever talks about that side of the situation.
If you asked me about this 2035 regulation....I'd tell you that it'll come and go, without any enforcement in Germany.
