The European Union has already decided: from 2035 onwards it will no longer be possible to sell new vehicles with internal combustion engines in the Old Continent, a measure that also cuts the legs of cars hybrid and not only those powered exclusively by an internal combustion engine. However, we know that not all Italian political forces share this mono-technological approach to the future of mobility, in particular those of the center-right who are preparing to govern Italy in the event that the elections of 25 September confirm what the polls predict.
And a center-right party, the League, means question the people on a possible stop to petrol and diesel starting from 2035, as expressly declared by the national secretary of the party Matteo Salvini. “I propose a popular referendum on the stop to the production of petrol and diesel vehicles from 2035. Let the workers of Mirafiori and all over Italy say whether it is right to promote the invention in Italy to benefit China “, his words spoken during an electoral event in Rivoli, in the province of Turin. Salvini’s reference to the Stellantis plant in Mirafiori is not accidental: only yesterday the company led by Carlos Tavares made a series of announcements relating to the Piedmontese pole, from the investment in the Mirafiori area in circular economy activities and for the production of electric transmissions to the creation of the main Hub for the Circular Economy which will be inaugurated over the next year to guarantee sustainable production and consumption models.
The line of distrust highlighted by Salvini follows that of another important member of the League, Giancarlo Giorgettiwho as Minister of Economic Development has repeatedly reiterated that the best approach is that of technological neutrality. “For the automotive sector there is not only electricity but also other ways to achieve the objectives of environmental sustainability. We need to make a reasoning that goes beyond the ambition to make a green transition, but which also takes into account strategic missions“he stated just a week ago.
