Core Viewpoint - Environmental advocates argue that the ongoing criticism of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) poses a risk to the critical technology transition necessary for fully electric vehicles (EVs) [1][3] Group 1: EU Regulations and Industry Response - The EU mandates that by 2035, all new cars and SUVs must be zero-emission, effectively requiring all new vehicles to be fully electric [1] - The automotive industry in Europe, particularly in Germany and Italy, is negotiating with EU authorities to relax the 2035 ban on the sale of combustion engine vehicles and extend the market lifecycle of PHEVs [1] Group 2: Criticism of PHEVs - The NGO T&E presents critical data opposing PHEVs, claiming that many companies receive subsidies for PHEVs but rarely utilize their batteries, leading to higher CO2 emissions than traditional vehicles [3] - T&E's analysis of 127,000 PHEVs indicates that their actual CO2 emissions can be nearly five times higher than official test claims, resulting in an average additional cost of €500 per year for drivers [3] - T&E labels PHEVs as "one of the biggest flaws in automotive history" and counters the argument for technological neutrality, suggesting that it leads to the misuse of useful technologies [3] Group 3: Support for PHEVs - Proponents of PHEVs argue that fully electric vehicles currently cannot compete with combustion engine vehicles in all aspects, positioning PHEVs as an important transitional solution [5] - The flexibility of PHEVs is gaining popularity, with sales in Europe increasing by 63% last month; projections suggest that PHEV sales in Europe could reach 1.22 million units this year, accounting for 9% of the market, and potentially rise to 2.4 million units by 2035, representing 18% of the market [5] Group 4: Addressing Concerns and Suggestions - Experts counter T&E's claims about corporate users neglecting battery usage, suggesting that tax incentives or corporate monitoring could improve this situation [7] - It is noted that PHEVs use smaller batteries than fully electric vehicles, which can reduce environmental impacts related to mineral extraction and battery disposal; their smaller batteries can also be charged using standard household outlets, providing significant convenience [7] - T&E has proposed design improvements for PHEVs, such as equipping them with over 200 km of electric range and fast-charging capabilities, but maintains that PHEVs are a dangerous workaround that undermines the goals of the Paris Agreement [9]
