European Regulations for an Affordable Sustainable (Battery) Electric Vehicle

Overview & Synopsis

From executive summary (page 6): Why do we need a small, affordable, sustainable electric vehicle (ASEV)? Why do we not have an ASEV in Europe? What can we learn from countries (Japan, China) where such AS(E)V exist? How can we promote a European made ASEV ? 1) Create a sub-M1 category (M1 ASEV) and create a new-M0 category (M0 ASEV) 2) Adjust the CO2 regulation for ASEV and more efficient decarbonisation 3) Introduction of a dedicated financial framework to support production take-off 4) Introduction of a European Eco score for cars: 5) Promotion of a European ASEV toolkit for Member States, regions and cities What would be the impact of ASEV on decarbonisation, just transition and European industry competitiveness?
