Only 17 percent will ban the internal combustion engine

In a new survey, only 17 percent of the population answered that they would like to see the internal combustion engine banned in 2035, which the EU has adopted.

As it stands now, the combustion engine in new cars will be banned in 2035. But only 17 percent of the population thinks it's a good idea.

This is shown by a round trip e.g. 1,000 randomly selected Germans, who Autoscout stands behind.

According to the German newspaper Bild, in particular the newly elected climate commissioner, the Dutch Wopke Hoekstra, is in favor of defeating the ban.

However, a small loophole has been left in relation to the internal combustion engine. Initially, Germany did not want to sign any ban agreement at all. So the EU had to give way when it comes to synthetic fuels.

However, some Germans are ready to go even further. Already in August, the association of German car brands VDA proposed that it should not be legal to buy either petrol or diesel from 2045.

– Europe can only achieve its COâ‚‚ reduction targets with a course that allows for all potential solutions in a technology-neutral way.

– Politicians are encouraged to establish incentives for the promotion of renewable energy sources and thereby guarantee and promote investments, said the association's chairwoman Hildegard Müller.

Back to the survey from Autoscout, 44 percent responded that they are in favor of phasing out the internal combustion engine. However, without an actual date. While 26 percent are in favor of the ban being postponed until after 2035. However, 7 percent of those questioned think that the ban should be brought forward.

Most recently, a number of car brands have conversely argued that it is too fast to push motorists over to electric cars. Nissan directly warns that England's plans to ban the internal combustion engine will cost the country billions of pounds and thousands of lost jobs.
