The Generalitat de Catalunya Clarifies That the Electric Vehicle Boost Plan Does Not Include Any Restrictions on Combustion Motorcycles
Barcelona, February 14, 2025 – The presentation of the 2025-2030 Electric Vehicle Boost Plan by the Generalitat de Catalunya raised concerns within the sector, due to the interpretation that the plan might imply restrictions on combustion motorcycles.
The Generalitat has clarified that there are no plans to limit these types of vehicles. In this regard, the Light Mobility Cluster expresses its full support for the Electric Vehicle Boost Plan.
In the motorcycle sector, in addition to promoting the transition to electric models in urban environments, it will also be crucial to encourage research and development of more sustainable technological solutions for interurban motorcycles, where current batteries face limitations in terms of weight and space.
Motorcycles are an integral part of the industrial and social fabric of Catalonia. In this context of mobility transformation, the region has the opportunity to position itself as a leader in the development of more sustainable motorcycling.
We are pleased to confirm that the situation was a result of confusion, and that the Generalitat has no intention of restricting combustion motorcycles. Instead, the focus is on promoting the electrification of the sector, particularly in urban areas. We fully share this vision and will work actively to make it a reality.
