As a manufacturer of Heavy-Duty Vehicles with over 100 years of experience in producing trucks and buses, we are fully committed to the green transition and have invested billions of Euros to support it. However, the market share of Zero-Emission medium- and heavy-duty trucks remains below the expected and necessary growth trajectory.
Mobia, which brings together the Belgian mobility federations Febiac, Renta and TRAXIO, does not see any need in Belgium to introduce a mandatory zero emission quota for vehicles in professional fleets. The current tax rules in Belgium already provide for a very rapid shift to zero-emission vehicles.

The Bosch Group, a global technology and automotive supplier, operates a large and diverse corporate fleet of 10,000 vehicles in Germany, mostly leased. Committed to carbon neutrality (achieved in Scope 1 and 2 since 2020) and a 30% CO2 reduction in Scope 3 by 2030, Bosch implements internal policies to increase the share of zero-emission vehicles and carbon-neutral fuels in its fleets, including service vehicles.
At present, corporate vehicle registrations are responsible for up to 60 % of new vehicle purchases and mobility service providers recognised their responsibility in helping to reduce overall fleet emissions. The further uptake of BEVs is constrained by a lack of existing enabling conditions linked to customer demand, vehicle utility and pricing, supply and infrastructure challenges paired with regulatory…

Most vehicle registrations in the EU concern company fleets. Accelerating the uptake of zero-emission vehicles in corporate fleets will support the decarbonisation of the EU automotive industry and contribute to the EU’s emission reduction targets. It will also increase the availability of zero-emission second-hand vehicles. The initiative introduces minimum requirements to mobilise this potential with H2 cars.

Growing Partnership – Renewable Fuels and Circular Economy for Sustainable Mobility 1. The shared objective is the decarbonisation of road transport, safeguarding the competitiveness and sustainability of the sector, in particular the European automotive industry. This new regulatory initiative should focus on all available technologies and avoid imposing a single means to achieve the end.

We are convinced that greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector need to be reduced, but ZEV mandates for fleet operators are not an appropriate solution. They would cause significant economic damage and severely weaken the EUs competitiveness. 1. Electricity mix ignored: One-third of EU electricity still comes from fossil fuels up to 90% in some countries yet this is overlooked in the policy design. 2.
In principle, iAE is in favour of introducing an EU legislation to accelerate the uptake of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) in company fleets in order to achieve the EU's CO2 reduction targets provided that the legislation is crafted to bolster the European automotive industry and its supply chain while generating high-quality employment.
The Fédération des Acteurs du Vélo en Entreprise (Corporate bike cycling) brings together companies offering bicycle rental services to employers in France. It currently has 17 members, representing around 20,000 company bicycles deployed across the country, which is the entire current market.

AFEP shares the European Commission's view that in order to accelerate the decarbonisation of the European vehicle fleet, it is necessary, in addition to supporting the supply of zero-emission vehicles, to support demand for these vehicles.

The market for corporate fleets is very complex. Artificial acceleration of market demand completely ignores the lack of regulatory framework necessary to achieve such high electrification rates in the EU. Nor does it take into account the diverse needs of customers. The current slowdown is due to the lack of appropriate conditions and not to the shortage of vehicle supply.

The proposed initiative prepares legislative instrument for faster roll-out of so called zero emissions vehicles (ZEV) in the EU. The initiative would diminish the scope of the Clean Vehicles by concentrating only on ZEVs, instead of all clean vehicles defined by the revised Clean Vehicles Directive.
This initiative has the potential to not just boost the decarbonization of Europe's automotive industry - but also that of hard-to-abate energy intensive industries. TSN recommends using this initiative to boost the EU battery ecosystem and production of low-carbon steel, by incentivizing the usage of EU value chains.

We do not deny the need for a green transition, but such a radical change and planned regulatory push-through and transition cannot take place expeditiously and in disregard of normal European law-making practice. It is necessary to find the best way to achieve the objective, but the current approach, ignoring the reality, leads to the opposite result in the light of all the analyses carried out.

Successfully transforming the European transport sector to become climate-neutral while maintaining competitiveness poses a major challenge for European and German mobility industries and service providers. Defossilising road transport is key to this: Roads are the main mode of transport in Europe and ensure efficient and resilient logistics chains for the EU economy.
UFE fully supports the EC intention to introduce a legislation aimed at greening corporate fleets. As corporate vehicles represent the largest share of the EU automotive market with about 60% of new sales going into this segment in 2023, this initiative would serve as a key driver to generate additional, stable demand for EVs in the EU, and therefore support European automative manufacturers in meeting CO standards…

Corporate fleets represent a significant opportunity to accelerate the decarbonisation of road transport. In the first half of 2025, they accounted for 60% of new car registrations across the EU, yet were responsible for approximately 75% of car-related emissions, largely due to their higher mileage. Therefore, this regulamentation is a great opportunity to accelerate transition for road transport. How?

Bus and coach sector has already very ambitious targets indeed.
On behalf of the Association of Road Transport Operators of the Slovak Republic ČESMAD Slovakia we express our unequivocal opposition to the possible introduction of mandatory quotas for the purchase of zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) by private transport companies.
The green transition must be fair, not impossible As a Romanian transport company, we support European climate goals and the transition to a cleaner future.

Dear Representatives of the European Commission, On behalf of an Austrian starch and bioethanol producer, we would like to express our concerns regarding the proposed transition to exclusively fully electric vehicles (ZEVs) in corporate fleets, as outlined in the recent public consultation.
SMEs are a driving force in Europe's mobility and transport economy. They play a key role in greening fleet operations, often adopting new technologies early on through leasing, rental, and shared mobility solutions. However, the European Commission's accelerated path towards a legislative proposal on zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) targets for corporate fleets risks undermining these efforts.
CONFETRA underlines that without enabling factors such as charging points, reinforced grids and sustained public investment, the electrification of heavy-duty vehicles is unrealistic. The current approach shifts all costs and risks onto companies and territories. This results in competitive distortions and deepens territorial disparities, creating first- and second-class logistics areas.

Corporate fleets are an integral part of industrial processes, product portfolio of the automotive industry and, thus, the according value chains. Therefore, corporate fleets may and should contribute to climate neutrality and sustainability. Nevertheless, it is also essential that the profitability and international competitiveness of these value chains and all their elements is taken into account and improved.
Key considerations in Portugal, corporate vehicle registrations account for up to 60 % of new car purchases. Mobility operators recognise their responsibility to reduce emissions, but the weight of electric vehicle rental (BEV) in the ACR does not exceed 5 %.

GCRA represents Car Rental (CR) and Operating Leasing (OL) companies in Greece. Our fleets are shaped by our customers demands and not the opposite. Customers demand for BEVs in CR is very low (avg. 1.5 days rental compared to 4-5 avg. days rental for ICE vehicles although the cost is the same). In OL, customers demand depends on the current subsidy program.
Vehicle rental is highly distinct from other types of corporate fleets. It has specific operational, customer and economic challenges for electrification. Our customers who span a wide range of leisure/tourism, business rental, public authorities, breakdown and replacement mobility use-cases are the decision-maker. They determine the vehicle propulsion choice for each rental and use-case.
At present, corporate vehicle registrations are responsible for up to 60% of new vehicle purchases and mobility service providers recognise their responsibility in helping to reduce overall fleet emissions. The further uptake of BEVs is constrained by a lack of existing enabling conditions linked to customer demand, vehicle utility and pricing, supply and infrastructure challenges paired with regulatory instability…

The current call for an impact assessment aims to accelerate the decarbonisation of transport. Our federations fully support this ambition. We note that the concept of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) is still defined almost exclusively around motorised vehicles (cars, vans, trucks and buses). Cargo bikes represent a particularly relevant solution for businesses operating in urban centres.
This is how you permanently destroy small transporters. They add second masses, with an average price of EUR 25.000-30.000, generally more than five years from the date of manufacture, so that the prices in the market – which have been decreasing rapidly for two years – which have been attacked, allow. Small hauliers also account for any 70 % of the market. They will never allow a more expensive truck.

I am against the forced electrification of car fleets. Both electric vehicles (no surcharges) as well as diesel vehicles should continue to be available. Electrification will lead to: exclude the transport of poorer residents in the EU, rural residents and older blocks (no space for chargers) as well as in the winter of mountain areas (non-resistance of electric cars to frost).

Argument sheet: Why cargo bikes must be included in the Clean Corporate Vehicles Initiative 1. Cargo bikes are zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). They have no tailpipe emissions and need minimal battery capacity. They use 712× less energy than e-vans and 1327× less than diesel vans. Replacing diesel vans with e-cargo bikes reduces CO emissions by ~250 g/km. 2. Proven solution, ready now.

Heavy and oversized road transport is a very specific and unique sector. We do not drive fixed routes like standard distribution companies. Every single transport is a project. Each time the authorities give us a special permit that defines the exact route, the times when we can move, and even the places where we are allowed to stop. Our cargo is very different from ordinary goods.

As a national association representing independent parts distributor/wholesaler operating in Spain, our members operate extensive fleets of delivery and/or sales vehicles. Every week, their fleets drive hundreds, and even thousands, of kilometres to deliver parts and services to workshops and customers, contributing to the repair and maintenance of 280 million vehicles on EU roads.
ChargeUp Europe underscores the strategic importance of electrifying corporate fleets to sustain electric vehicle (EV) demand and help car manufacturers comply with their emissions targets. Corporate cars make up ~60% of new car registrations in Europe today.
Promoting the ecologic transition of Automotive sector is a primary objective of the Alliance of European Car Dealers and Repairers (AECDR). In this framework, AECDR deems the EC's stated strategic objective of the proposed Corporate Fleet Regulation, namely that the enforced deployment of BEVs in corporate fleets is aimed at achieving decarbonisation targets, as misleading.

Within Deutsche Bahn Group, our subsidiary Deutsche Bahn Connect GmbH operates around 25.000 vehicles (excluding vehicles dedicated to passenger transport) for all companies of Deutsche Bahn Group. These vehicles consist mainly of maintenance and service vehicles that are used to ensure 24/7 availability of German tracks and rail service (expansion, repair, maintenance, services).
In our view, the following points currently stand against a quota system. high investment in location infrastructure on the premises – lack of connection of the location infrastructure to the public networks – vehicle types are currently not available, there is no point to purchase as an alternative for heavier vehicles – high purchase costs currently 3-3.5 times – currently no business case – range for vehicles in…

The Federal Carsharing Association, as the umbrella association of German car-sharing providers, welcomes and supports the Commission’s objective of climate-neutral, zero-emission mobility. However, the Commission’s proposals published so far (communication of 5 March 2025 on decarbonising corporate fleets) do not represent a meaningful approach to promoting the shift in car-sharing fleets.

Corporate cars: Big missed opportunity to accelerate electrification Corporate cars represent a big opportunity to efficiently decarbonize road transport - looking at registration across the EU in the fi rst half of 2025, they account for 60% of new car registrations while being responsible for around 75% of car emissions (due to their higher mileage).
The BWVL strongly opposes a quota requirement to decarbonise road freight transport. Mandatory quotas do not reflect the realities of companies. The BWVL faces very specific framework conditions which, in its view, are insufficiently taken into account in the political debate: Insufficient infrastructure: Recharging and refuelling facilities are not sufficiently available both on premises and in public spaces.

FÖS Response to EU Call for Evidence Corporate fleets account for around 2/3 of all new passenger car registrations in Germany. Given their high mileage and turnover, they offer a crucial lever for decarbonising road transport and accelerating the diffusion of zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) into the broader market. Effective and fair policy action is essential. 1.
Corporate fleets are a decisive lever for accelerating the shift to electric mobility in Europe. They can bring large volumes of electric vehicles onto the road within a short timeframe, boosting market uptake and making clean mobility more accessible. When these vehicles enter the used car market, they provide affordable, high-quality options for private customers.
The Irish Road Haulage Association (IRHA) welcomes the opportunity to contribute to the European Commissions work on Clean Corporate Vehicles. We broadly align with the International Road Transport Union (IRU) position: the most effective way to drive ZEV uptake is through the creation of strong enabling conditions, notably generous and well-targeted incentives, infrastructure readiness and supportive regulation.

SUEZ welcomes the ambition of the European Union to accelerate the uptake of zero-emission vehicles in corporate fleets. Indeed, SUEZ manages a fleet of 9,868 light vehicles in France (3,958 company cars and 5,910 operational vehicles), making SUEZ one of the top 10 best equipped French companies. In 2024, more than 1,800 vehicles were renewed, including 25% plug-in hybrid vehicles.
My opinion on any mandatory purchases of ZEVs is negative. Particularly in the case of commercial vehicles, trucks, and buses, it is unacceptable to force operators to purchase technology that still has significantly worse operating conditions than vehicles with combustion engines.
Concluding with ideological transport policy Rettet economic rationality in Europe We are following the latest plans of the European Union. Car rental companies, car sharing providers and company fleets will be forced to use only electric vehicles. This action is part of the so-called Green Deal of a project that increasingly embraces the character of ideological policies rather than pragmatic climate strategy.
