No chargers, no deal: Europe's biggest truckmakers push back against the 2030 climate deadline

Europe's leading truckmakers want the EU to postpone 2030 emissions targets by three years. They cite insufficient charging stations and high energy costs as major business hurdles. Currently, only a small fraction of new heavy-duty vehicles are zero-emission. The industry needs significant sales increases to meet upcoming regulations. Truckmakers also ask for accelerated charging infrastructure development and grid connection improvements.
