"Stockholm plans to ban petrol and diesel cars in part of the city starting in
2025 in a bid to crack down on pollution.
An area of about 20 blocks that straddles the Swedish capital’s finance area
and main shopping drags will only allow electric cars, some hybrid trucks and
fuel cell vehicles, according to rules to be presented on Wednesday,
SVT
reported on its website. An expansion of the zone could be decided in the first
half of 2025.
Stockholm could be the first major capital to introduce such a wide prohibition
and goes further than plans by Paris, Athens and Madrid to ban diesel cars.
Other cities, including London, have introduced low-emission zones where
drivers pay daily fees to enter the city center with older combustion engine
vehicles."
