Why BEVs outperform PHEVs and Range-Extended EVs for light transport decarbonization by 2035 in Europe

Summary

After 2035, only new cars with CO2 emissions of zero grams per kilometre will be allowed to be registered in the EU. Critics have long been calling for this target to be abolished or at least watered down, for example by means of plug-in hybrids and range extenders. A new study from France suggests that part-time electric vehicles will no longer be needed by 2035.
