核心要点 2025 年 8 月 8 日，德国 巴登 - 符腾堡州罗特韦尔市，一处加油站内，加油枪正在为一辆燃油车加油。 在德国、意大利以及部分汽车行业协会的游说之下，欧盟预计于本周二放宽 2035 年起禁售新燃油车的 相关规定。 近日已有多家媒体报道了这项拟议中的政策松绑方案。欧洲议会资深议员曼弗雷德・韦伯上周晚些时候 向德国《图片报》透露，这项禁售令的力度将会被削弱。 欧盟 2035 年起禁售新柴油车和汽油车（包括厢式货车）的政策，于 2023 年获批时，被视为欧盟核心绿 色新政中的标志性举措。该政策的目标是在 2035 年前实现乘用车和厢式货车的二氧化碳零排放。 放宽这项政策，将为欧洲本土整车制造商提供更大的灵活度。这些厂商目前正同时面临美国关税压力、 供应链中断、来自中国车企的激烈竞争，以及向电动汽车转型过程中的重重阻碍。 分析师对此举能否增强欧洲地区的长期竞争力提出质疑，环保人士则批评这是欧盟在气候目标上的又一 次潜在倒退。 欧盟执行机构欧盟委员会的发言人在接受美国消费者新闻与商业频道（CNBC）采访时拒绝置评，相关 新闻发布会定于本周二下午举行。 外界普遍预计，欧盟将于本周二放宽 2035 年起禁售 ...
