加拿大要求到 2035 年新车实现零排放

加拿大交通部长奥马尔·阿尔加布拉周二宣布，到 2035 年，加拿大的所有新车和轻型卡车都必须实现零排放，从而加快了消除车辆污染的时间表。

“今天，我宣布我们正在加速实现零排放汽车的目标。到 2035 年，在加拿大销售的所有新车和轻型卡车都将是零排放汽车——100%，”阿尔加布拉在新闻发布会上说。

“这比我们之前的目标早了五年，”他说。

他说，监管举措将帮助加拿大在本世纪中叶实现其整体净零碳排放的目标。

阿尔加布拉指出，加拿大是世界上少数几个拥有生产电动汽车(EV)电池所有关键资源的国家之一，并赞扬通用汽车(General Motors)、福特(Ford)和其他汽车制造商在加拿大开设电动汽车装配厂。

但是，尽管政府鼓励支付相对较高的电动汽车价格，但购买量却一直缓慢上升。

根据政府数据，去年在加拿大注册的 2500 万辆乘用车和卡车中，纯电动汽车和插电式混合动力汽车占比不到 4%，高于 2019 年的约 2%。

All new cars and light-duty trucks in Canada will be required to be zero-emissions by 2035, Transport Minister Omar Alghabra announced Tuesday, moving up the timeline for eliminating vehicle pollution.
"Today, I'm announcing that we are accelerating our zero emission vehicles goal. By 2035, all new cars and light duty trucks sold in Canada will be zero emission vehicles -- 100 percent of them," Alghabra told a news conference.

"This is five years sooner than our previous goal," he said.

The regulatory move, he said, will help Canada to meet its overall net-zero carbon emissions target for the economy by mid-century.

Alghabra noted that his country is one of the few in the world with domestic access to all of the key resources for producing electric vehicle (EV) batteries, and praised General Motors, Ford and other automakers for opening EV assembly plants in Canada.

But despite government incentives to defray the relatively higher prices of EVs, purchases have been slow to take off.

According to government data, battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids accounted for less than four percent of the 25 million passenger cars and trucks registered in Canada last year- up from about two percent in 2019.
