It won't matter. Demand will have tailed off significantly over the next 4-5 years and by then I'd be amazed if any are choosing to produce combustion engines anyway.

It's not really a surprise that Germany as a nation are against any big changes in the auto industry, it must make up a big part of it's manufacturing output.

IIrc plenty of other countries are looking at similar, and they started lobbying the EU the day after the ban agreement was signed. I'll try and find something...
