Leading EU businesses, including DHL, Volvo, and TRATON, are urging EU Transport Ministers to implement toll exemptions for zero-emission trucks to promote clean freight. They emphasize that while trucks make up only 2% of road vehicles, they account for about 25% of transport emissions. The removal of toll costs is seen as a crucial step to reduce the price gap between diesel and electric fleets. This call is part of the push for the swift implementation of the Eurovignette Directive.
