A new ICCT study suggests that delaying the EU's passenger car CO2 targets could result in the loss of up to 185,000 jobs by 2035. Maintaining current standards, combined with industrial policies supporting European production, could instead boost employment across the electric vehicle supply chain.

Electric trucks could require around 100 TWh of charging energy annually across Europe by 2035 under a moderate electrification scenario, according to a new ICCT and Fraunhofer ISI study. Most demand would come from depot charging and be heavily concentrated around major freight corridors and logist...

Europe's zero-emission truck market continued to expand in the first half of 2026, with electric heavy truck registrations nearly doubling year-on-year. Germany emerged as the main growth engine, while medium-duty trucks maintained their upward trajectory despite showing signs of a slower adoption r...

The International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) published a new edition of our quarterly EU market monitor for heavy- and medium-duty commercial vehicles. Have a look at the latest data here.

The ICCT analyzed six different scenarios in France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, and Sweden. "Full toll exemptions for electric trucks would be sufficient to bring total cost of ownership to parity with diesel for 2026 regional trucks in France, Germany, and Sweden, and reduce the cost gap to gap...

Over 23,700 new zero-emission heavy-duty vehicles (ZE-HDVs) were registered in Europe in 2025. They were about 10,000 in the first half of the year. In the heavy-duty segment, the share of ZE trucks was about 1.9% (2.7% in the last quarter of 2025). The share of ZE medium-duty trucks was slightly ab...
