The Netherlands lower house of parliament has passed a motion that would ban the sale of all gas-powered cars in th
e country by 2025. It now needs to be approved by the nation’s senate for it to become law.
The initial proposal from the Dutch Labour Party (PvdA) sought to ban all non-zero-emission vehicles, but this was changed to the less extreme motion that allows gas-powered cars to remain on the roads but ends the sale of new models.
