The members of Germany’s Bundesrat passed a resolution to ban both gasoline and diesel engines starting in 2030, Forbes reports, citing a story in the German-language Spiegel Magazin. Following that date, only zero-emission vehicles will be approved for manufacture, most of which will likely be battery-electric vehicles. The resolution calls on the European Union to follow in its footsteps, but the Bundesrat resolution carries no official legislative power with the EU. It is, however, influential in creating regulations, so this resolution could get the EU Commission, headquartered in Brussels, to create a similar directive that actually carries weight.
