The European Union on Monday said it had no plans to introduce quotas for electric cars for an automobile sector seeking to recover from the Volkswagen diesel scandal, a spokeswoman for the EU executive said.
"Generally speaking, the Commission is looking into ways to promote the use of low carbon energy and transport, but none of them includes quotas for electric cars," the spokeswoman told reporters.
"We do not discriminate between different technologies."
The Commission was reacting to a report in German newspaper Handelsblatt that cited EU sources as saying the European Commission wanted to accelerate the retreat from combustion engines by setting a quota for low emission cars such as electric cars from 2025.
