"Europe’s road freight sector is at a turning point. Current geopolitical
tensions and renewed energy price volatility strengthen the case for reducing
Europe’s dependence on diesel in road freight.
Still, in many countries, zero-emission trucks (ZETs) remain more expensive to
own and operate than diesel trucks. Looking ahead, accelerating total cost of
ownership (TCO) parity between ZETs and diesel counterparts is critical to
faster rollout.
That’s where the Eurovignette Directive steps in."
