The policies are part of the government’s overall plan to combat climate change. Transportation accounts for about 22% of Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions.

Canada has announced final rules requiring all cars, SUVs, crossovers and light trucks sold in the country by 2035 to be zero-emission. TVP reported it.

It is noted that these guidelines are part of the government’s overall plan to combat climate change. The EV accessibility standard was first released in 2021. According to it, by 2026, zero-emission vehicles must make up at least 20% of all cars sold, and in 2030 – at least 60% Industry officials say that by the third quarter of 2023, electric vehicles will make up 12.1% of new vehicle sales.

Zero-emission vehicles are an important part of Canada’s low-carbon future, Natural Resources Minister Jonathan Wilkinson said.

As we know, transportation accounts for about 22% of greenhouse gas emissions in Canada.

The Canadian auto industry considers these rules too ambitious due to the higher cost of electric vehicles and the fact that the charging network is not available across the country, especially in rural areas.

Due to complaints that electric vehicles are impractical in remote and northern areas where cold conditions can reduce battery efficiency, hybrid vehicles with an all-electric range of 50 miles or more will remain available for sale until 2035 and beyond.

According to the International Energy Agency, global sales of electric vehicles now account for about 13% of all vehicle sales and are likely to increase to 40-45% of the market by the end of the decade.

As reported, the global electric car market has grown by 34% since the beginning of the year.

Recall that global automakers have dramatically increased discounts on electric vehicles in an attempt to slow the waning demand for them.
