I mean there kind of is. As is stands, selling cars that emit CO2 will no longer be allowed after 2035. You could argue that that's far too late, and I would agree, but there is a date and since car manufacturers usually plan ahead (I hope), there probably won't be many fossil fuel-powered cars by then. It is, however, not strictly limited to electric cars. It just is not allowed to emit CO2.

I don't see how this is the EU's fault. This is some German tax office revoking a status they had previously granted without any explanation. It seems typical for German bureaucracy though.

Could you provide a source for the second part? I'm genuinely interested
