VW Plans to Go All-Electric in Europe, US Later

Volkswagen plans to eliminate internal-combustion engines from its European lineup as soon as 2033, with the United States following later, an executive said in an interview last week.

"In Europe, we will exit the business with internal-combustion vehicles between 2033 and 2035, in the United States and China somewhat later," VW board member for sales Klaus Zellmer said in an interview with newspaper Muenchner Merkur (via Reuters).

The transition will take even longer in South America and Africa, Zellmer said, citing lack of infrastructure and political support.

Zellmer said he expects electric cars to account for 70% of VW's European sales by 2030, preparing the automaker meet possible stricter EU emissions standards. VW plans to make its entire lineup CO2-neutral by 2050 at the latest, Zellmer said.

Automakers' lawsuit to overturn Massachusetts vehicle data access law goes to trial

The trial has begun in federal court to hear the challenge brought by the vehicle manufacturers against the voters of Massachusetts on the data access law.
. . .

Our 2003 Prius had a two-volume, paper manual set that showed pretty much everything you could do. Then Toyota switched to their Technical Information Service and everything became much, much more expensive. Worse, John Deere makes it all but impossible for a farmer with $200,000 equipment in harvest or planting season to fix their broken equipment.
