⚡🚗 🇪🇺 Electric vehicles accounted for 27% of all cars produced in the European Union in 2025. The share has tripled since 2020, when the European car industry suffered a downturn in production due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Thank you to everyone who joined us in Brussels yesterday for the launch of this year’s EV Transition Check✅. The event was organized in partnership with the Irish Presidency of the Council of the EU 2026. If you haven't checked the report yet, here is a link: theicct.org/publication/...

🚨NEW: Electric cars are 33% cheaper to drive than gasoline in Europe, while electric trucks are approaching cost parity with diesel. Our second EV Transition Check✅ finds that, as battery costs decrease and fuel prices remain high, EVs are becoming the most cost-effective vehicle choice in Europe.

Plug-in hybrid cars set to fuel fresh political fight over CO2 standards

Gap between official and real-world emissions widens, with drivers apparently reluctant to switch off the petrol engine

dlvr.it

The real-world CO2 emissions of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles registered in Europe in 2023 were 4.6x larger than official values. A new ICCT report evaluates the causes for this discrepancy and considers how the European Commission could mitigate this in the future. 🔗 theicct.org/publication/...

The European Commission’s proposed amendments to the CO2 standards for cars and vans include a mechanism for “low-carbon steel” credits. How can this mechanism be designed to to support a fossil-free EU steel industry? 🚗🇪🇺 We've explored this question our latest brief ⬇️ theicct.org/publication/...

🚌🚚 Sales of zero-emission trucks and buses in Europe increased by 41% in Q1 2026 compared with Q1 2025. 📈 Nearly 1 in 5 medium trucks and vans sold is now zero-emission, and electric heavy trucks are gaining ground fast. All data in our latest market monitor: theicct.org/publication/...

Zero-emission heavy-duty vehicle sales in the EU could slow down. 🚛 An amendment to the CO2 standards for HDVs gives vehicle manufacturers more flexibility before 2030. ICCT analysis suggests that this could reduce ZE-HDV sales share and overall uptake. Full analysis:
