Clément Bon, the new transport minister, spoke about the sales ban thermal machines and hybrids new inside European Union from here 2035 year. In particular, he wishes to continue to explore technologies alternative to 100% electric, for example synthetic fuel example.
A review provision in 2026?
“There will be an item to review to see if there are other technologies that may accompany“Electronic technologies,” assured Clément Bonnet this Sunday.

Continue to export after 2035 to counter China
On the other hand, after 2035, Clément Bon argues that, first of all, we should not stop the export of diesel locomotives outside of Europe.
“In order not to kill our European industry, because there are continents that are a little slower than us“- said the minister.And we are not going to stop exporting hybrid or thermal cars abroad in 2035, otherwise the Chinese will conquer all the developing markets.“.
If it is necessary to stop the sale of new locomotives in Europe by 2035, then there is no question of exports. Indeed, outside the Old Continent, regions such as Africa, Asia or South America will continue to sell thermal cars. A logical observation, as the vast majority of developing countries simply will not be able to make the green transition as quickly as Europe. On the contrary, the demand for cars with internal combustion engines will grow and will eventually become a significant market for car manufacturers in European countries.
