Giorgia Meloni it is said against it stop the electrical transition for cars by 2035. The plan is “ideological madness” and according to the prime minister it must be correct. To do this, the first step is to enter Europe in good numbers and promote the rumor extension to the measurement.
The transition to electric cars and the blocking of the production of petrol and diesel vehicles by 2035 represent a complex challenge. As the European Commission pushes for a zero-emissions future, criticism and uncertainty over the plan’s feasibility highlight the need for a balanced approach. The review is scheduled for 2026, a crucial time to determine the path forward.
The agreement on stopping diesel and petrol: the timing of the plan
The European Commission has approved a series of measures to reduce CO2 emissionsproviding among other things the ban on sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2035. A waiver for synthetic fuels was also achieved.
The main milestones of the plan include achieving zero missions by 2035 with a 100% reduction in emissions from new cars and vans. An intermediate objective involves reducing emissions from new cars by 55% by 2030, but above all continuous monitoring and evaluation of data for a periodic review of the plan.
The flexibility accepted for synthetic fuels is not the only one. The proposals of extension they have become increasingly numerous and noisy, also regarding the risk of job losses. Among these also those of Giorgia Meloni.
Giorgia Meloni aims to correct the shot on petrol and diesel
Giorgia Meloni expressed strong criticism towards the transition to electric, calling it “forced” as well as “ideological madness”. According to the leader of Fratelli d’Italia, the European Green Deal legislation lacks pragmatism and endangers entire production chains without adequately considering the implications for the automotive industry.
Meloni declared in a recent interview the neitherinability to act rationally: “Bringing rationality and pragmatism back to the ecological and energy transition”. Furthermore, he underlined that there is not just one preferred technology and that it would be better to aim for different solutions for it decarbonisation.
Meloni’s statements reflect a conservative position not dissimilar to that of Matteo Salvini.
Postponement of the stop: the decision is ever closer
The European Union has planned a review in 2026 to evaluate the feasibility of banning the sale of petrol and diesel cars from 2035. The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyenhighlighted the importance of the review, which could lead to a postponement of the deadline if the objectives were not practicable.
Von der Leyen then underlined that the r2026 revision it could lead to a change in the limits, but also to ensure greater choice for consumers and businesses.
The postponement of the stop to 2035 will depend on the progress made and the socio-economic consequences. Key obstacles include the high prices of electric cars and the risk of layoffs in the automotive sector. Finally, the political situation, such as the stance taken by Giorgia Meloni and the pressure from the car manufacturers, which have already obtained several bonuses, could further influence future decisions.
