Euro 7, or making internal combustion cars disappear, without saying it, in 2025, leaving the Europeans on foot

How do I make internal combustion cars disappear without any popular vote, without any impact assessment and leaving the Europeans, perhaps, on foot, without anyone noticing? In the manner of the Commission, that is by imposing an unattainable and impossible standard for internal combustion engines, that is exactly what is happening with the Euro standard / which should be introduced in 2025. A standard so logical and physically possible that the German Automobilclub describes this project regulation as the "end of the combustion engine" or the "end of our industry".

What are the Euro 7 engine standards from 2025? The new vehicles are expected to emit only 30 mg of NOx (nitric oxide) per kilometer and, subsequently, only 10 mg per kilometer. The current limit is 60 mg for petrol and 80 mg for diesel vehicles. Furthermore, the CO2 limit values ​​must be drastically reduced to 300 or 100 mg, depending on the vehicle category. Furthermore, the measurement conditions are those, much more restrictive than the Real Drive Emissions Test (RDE) to ensure compliance with the limit values ​​and all the exceptions previously allowed by the RDE measurements will be canceled.

The Germans are furious, both as motorists and as car manufacturers. Dr. Michael Heberland of the German Automobile Club spoke of "An otherworldly solution", that is, it does not exist on earth, also because technically there is no internal combustion engine that can satisfy this type of request.

Who is the author of these brilliant standards? EU Vice President Frans Timmermans from Holland, a red-green head who likes to attract attention with absurd requests, such as the cancellation of internal air travel. Tiemmermans should have become president of the Commission, so you can understand that in Brussels the alternatives to Von der Leyen were no better than her …

The consequences of this new standard on emissions would be fatal for industry and companies in the automotive sector, also because we are not yet ready to replace internal combustion with electric mobility. Several million jobs would jump across Europe, but what does Tiemmermans care about greenish? Nothing, so he has the driver who takes him around. The Europeans, on the other hand, risk becoming like the Cubans, from 2025, that is, forced to fix and repair old cars, because the new ones will no longer exist. A good step forward for European citizens, to be held accountable by the ever-green Commission.
