To przestrzeń, w której spotykają się europejskie polityki klimatyczne, rozwój technologii, nawyki użytkowników oraz plany przemysłu motoryzacyjnego.

What does it mean for Europe and Poland and for the world?

If it's happening there on the road, it will come to Europe as well.

Jak wiesz, przez lata nasza polityka klimatowa wzrosła od techniczno-ekonomicznej inicjatywy do centralnej pilaru europejskiej polityki.

So the question is, is Europe going to try and compete in this space?

I mean, for example, supply chains, which are important for our technological independence, the power of Europe.

If we don't have that industrial base in Europe, we will be vulnerable to economic coercion by China, which is what we're seeing on the critical mineral exports, but in the future you might see that on other technologies as well.

Jak byś zapytał o obecną sytuację niemobilności w Unii Europejskiej?

You've got China, you've got the United States, Europe, Japan, Korea.

I mean the situation when the Green Deal is questioned and challenged by the Europeans.

I think we can say that there is some kind of a trend in Europe right now.

Chciałbym więc zaprosić was do poszukiwania różnych perspektyw i porozmawiać o tym, jak perspektywy różnią się między kierowcami, producentami samochodów i rządami dużych krajów Unii Europejskiej pod względem obecnych obowiązków.

So even the most conservative European car makers say that 50% of cars will be electric in the future.

Pytanie jest to, czy produkt będzie produkowany przez europejskich i wschodnich fabrykarzy, czy tylko przez chińskich fabrykarzy.

I think what he's doing is forcing European governments to think much harder about supply chains.

In Europe for a very long time we thought that the world was one open market and you could buy everything, you know, what you wanted anywhere in the world.

I to jest wielki wyzwanie dla inwestycji europejskich w autobusach, która jest naturno wielonacjonalna.

It's an opportunity because you can partially reindustrialize Europe.

You can produce more in Europe, but of course it doesn't come for free.

Because production in Europe is more expensive than production in China.

That's a big challenge for Europe.

It's going to be very hard for the European automotive industry to compete globally if it doesn't have a strong base in Europe.

Just to sum up this part of our conversation and to highlight the main takeaways, let's confront with the myth or the truth, I don't know, whether the immobility development in Europe is on the collision course with the EU's efforts on the technological neutrality and independence or not, in a short and a long perspective.

That's right, because if you want immobility to succeed in Europe, you need a battery industry.

This is also spurring European industry forward.

I would be very happy if in 2030 around half of new cars sold in Europe are electric.

This is something the European Commission is working on.

I mean, on December 10th, the European Commission is expected to publish the so-called Corporate Fleets Proposal, which would require 60% electric vehicles by 2026 and 100% by

European Commission looked at that and said that is a great way to boost the market in Europe and to do it in a way that it doesn't put too much pressure on normal consumers.

We do it through tax changes, we make it attractive and we create a big market for the vehicles that European car producers are trying to sell.

If it were up to me, I would keep the 100% electric by 2035, but I understand politically that's maybe not possible or not desirable, but what is really important is that we don't start creating a lot of confusion in the industry, because I don't think that's in the interest of Europe or Poland or any of the countries.
