Fossil-fueled cars may soon become a part of history. Many countries have set a deadline for ending the sales of fossil-fueled cars: France by 2040, the U.K. by 2030, and Norway aims to become the world’s first country to achieve this by 2025. Responding to green initiatives, and after investing billions of dollars into vehicle electrification, the automotive industry’s giants are pledging to stop making old fashioned internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Volkswagen plans for 25% of sales to consist of electric cars by 2025. General Motors (GM) aspires to stop making gasoline-powered vehicles by 2035, and Ford (Europe division) will go entirely electric by 2030.
