Fiat says it’ll go all electric in Europe for 2022 but ethanol will still dominate in Brazil

In Italy, Fiat says that it is looking to invest $10.5 billion on electric vehicles through 2022 as it shifts its fleet in Europe to comply with emissions regulations, but not in Brazil. In Brazil, the company says ethanol will continue to be the dominant fuel used for reducing carbon emissions so the switch to electric won’t be necessary. It anticipates that only 40% of the company’s powertrains in the EMEA region will be non-electric by 2022 with diesel dropped completely by 2021.
