The future of private mobility is not ‘full electric’ and the transition to an electric-only car engine will fail. Politics, with its slogans on the switch to electric harms the automotive sector and confuses consumers, postponing purchase decisions. If the electric motor is an opportunity for mobility, to reduce polluting emissions we should focus on hybrid engines and, in Italy in particular, renew the car fleet, which is among the oldest in Europe. The total conversion to electricity, desired by some European institutions, “is a trend that will fail” and a move to 2035 to electricity only “is not feasible so clearly”, explains Jody Brugola, president of Oeb, Officine to the Adnkronos. Egidio Brugola, an almost centennial company from Lissone, in the province of Monza and Brianza, whose founder, Egidio Brugola, invented and patented the Allen screw. The company is now specialized in the production of critical screws and fastening components for the automotive sector, has 11 production plants in Italy and one in Michigan, in the United States, 500 employees and a 2020 turnover of 150 million euros. In Italy, according to data from Unrae, the association of foreign car manufacturers operating in Italy, petrol and diesel cars with over 34.5 million units represent 90% of the fleet in circulation. However, the number of electric cars ‘on tap’, the Ecvs, rose to 9.4% of the total fleet, far behind 26% in Germany, 18.6% in the United Kingdom and 18.3% in France. . “They are harmful slogans, given that there is no clear plan for the transition”, continues Brugola. So much so that even the European Parliament has cooled the European faith in electricity, with the Transport Commission which voted against the abolition of internal combustion engines from 2035, pronouncing itself instead in favor of a technological mix. The transition “must be managed”, insists the Oeb president. And Italian politics must realize “the centrality of its automotive sector, which binds us to Germany, Europe and the world. Since we are strong in this sector, we must protect our interests, our jobs and companies. “. Failure to protect the sector will risk “hundreds of thousands if not millions of unemployed working in the sector in Europe”. For Brugola we speak in a “too simplistic” way of the electric car and the electric motor and “considerable damage” is created to companies in the sector, from producers to all related industries. “Even if all carmakers are investing in this segment it doesn’t mean they will be successful.” Also because “it is very premature to say that there will be no more combustion engines, given that the Euro 6 and Euro 7 are extremely clean. Both diesel and petrol engines have made great strides, they consume less and last longer. “In this sense, in Italy we should focus on the renewal of the car fleet. According to Unrae, the 38.8 million cars circulating in the country at the end of 2021 have an average age of 11.8 years and 26% of cars on the road are pre-Euro 4. “We need to encourage people to buy new cars and new generation, disposing of the obsolete car fleet we have “. The other direction is to focus on hybrid engines. “The hybrid solution is the best, it has been working for twenty years and is beneficial in the city,” says Brugola. In the meantime, for the diffusion of electricity and mass level, “the infrastructure is lacking, with charging stations on the street and in the garages, as well as the possibility of producing the right amount of batteries and disposing of them”. Finally, there are also underestimated dangers to the safety of lithium batteries, due to fire risks. “The security problem needs to be addressed much more carefully.” Meanwhile, Oeb is repositioning itself on electric motors. “If things go more and more electric we are ready, we are already diversifying”, in particular by supplying engines not covered in the past and working for new car manufacturers. Furthermore, concludes Brugola, “we are pushing ourselves to make screws that one day can be used on electric motors, which do not only have to do with the engine but which can also go to other parts of the car”.
