Von Der Leyen Confirms 2035 ICE Ban After Commission Re-election
The re-election of the European Commission President has confirmed the ambitious ban on Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles by 2035, a decision that has been both praised and scrutinized by various sectors.
Implications of the 2035 ICE Ban for Vehicle Owners

- Air Quality Improvement: Health benefits from improved air quality will result in fewer respiratory issues for the population.
Impact on Vehicle Owners

- Resale Value of ICE Vehicles: The resale value of diesel and gasoline cars is likely to decrease as the ban approaches, urging owners
