Febetra verzet zich met klem tegen het voornemen van de Europese Commissie om ondernemingen die over een vloot van meer dan X aantal (10???) voertuigen beschikken te verplichten om emissievrije bestelwagens en vrachtwagens aan te kopen. De insteek van de Europese Commissie staat haaks op de fundamentele rechten op eigendom en op de vrije ondernemerskeuze.

Their record over time
Febetra filed 2 positions between 10 Feb 2022 and 18 Aug 2025, across 2 of the 326 legislative files tracked here.
What they argued
Cross-border transport with a total authorised weight of 44 tonnes should be allowed between two neighbouring Member States, such as Belgium and France, which each allow a total authorised weight of 44 tonnes on their own territory. Today’s ban is an absurdity that prevents carriers from reducing their environmental footprint and runs counter to the objectives of the Green Deal.
