Summary
For example, their CO2 emissions must fall by 43 percent by 2030 compared to 2019. Going from 2 percent in 2025 to 35 percent in 2030 is “a really big challenge”. The challenge is that in 2025, only two percent of all heavy-duty trucks in Europe were electric.
Furthermore, Daimler Truck CEO: “A great challenge” According to Rådström, to achieve 43 percent of savings, about 35 percent of all newly registered trucks in Europe would have to be battery-electric or hydrogen-powered by 2030. With sales of roughly 20 billion euros in both years. According to the European Commission, heavy-duty vehicles account for more than 25 percent of road transport emissions in the EU and account for more than 6 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions.
In addition, Rådström is also currently Chairman of the Commercial Vehicles Committee of the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers (Acea). EU CO2 regulation and the threat of penalties could have existential consequences for the industry.
