SHANGHAI: China's massive car sector is on track to bring its climate-warming carbon dioxide emissions to a peak by 2027 but on current trends, it is unlikely to meet the country's 2060"net zero" target, environment group Greenpeace said on Tuesday .
But it will need to cut emissions by at least 20 per cent by 2035 if it is to stay on track towards net zero by 2060, Greenpeace said. "The ideal response is for carmakers in China to completely phase out internal combustion engine vehicles by 2030," said Bao Hang, project leader for Greenpeace Asia in Beijing.China said in a 2021-2035 development plan for the sector in late 2020 that pure electric vehicles should make up 20 per cent of sales by 2025 and then become the"mainstream" by 2035.
