The European Commission is expected to reverse the EU's ban on new combustion-engine car sales from 2035, due to pressure from automakers and countries like Germany and Italy. The ban may be delayed by five years or softened indefinitely. This move has divided the automotive sector, with traditional automakers supporting the change and EV makers opposing it, fearing increased competition from China.
