Our statement to the Gear 2030

January 28, 2016

T&E welcomes the opportunity to participate in the GEAR 2030 initiative that we consider better focused and more democratic than predecessor groups.

The future of the automotive sector is important not only for the EU economy but also the environment and health of citizens over half a million of whom die prematurely annual as a result of air pollution in the EU. A shift to sustainable mobility along with a successful EU automotive sector must be twin goals of the GEAR 2030 initiatives.
