What they argued
As the European trade association for the light, electric vehicle sector, LEVA-EU welcomes the Commission’s proposal to include specific provisions for batteries for ‘light means of transport’ in the draft Regulation. However, if the current proposals are upheld, they will constitute no less than an existential threat to the European market of light, electric vehicles (LEV).
In showing the EU the way to a climate-neutral economy by 2050, the Long-Term Climate Strategy of the Commission overlooks a key player in the decarbonisation of mobility, i.e. light, electric vehicles (LEVs) such as electric bicycles, scooters, motorcycles, light 3 and 4-wheeled vehicles, … E-bikes constitute the single biggest EV success in Europe.
LEVA-EU is the only trade association in the EU to represent businesses in the sector of Light Electric Vehicles, i.e. all electric vehicles which are either included in Regulation 168/2013 or excluded from the Regulation. Most of these vehicles have batteries that belong to the LMT battery-category. We agree with the Commission Proposal for a Regulation (COM(2025)258) aimed at postponing due diligence requirements.
