Europe is very close to banning ICE cars from 2035 - 2040. And part of the people pushing for this ban are... European automobile manufacturers, especially VW. Funny, right?
Volkswagen has invested tens of billions of euros into EVs and will invest about 80 billion more until 2030 and I think they expect their entire lineup to be EV-only by 2030 or so, so if they manage to ban ICEs by 2035, they'd basically be banning some of their slower moving competitors :-))
