The EU has passed a law which means all cars sold after 2035 must be emission-free.
Germany called for an exemption for cars running on e-fuels, which it granted even though e-fuels are not currently being produced on a large scale.
The new law will also require that all new cars sold have 55% lower CO2 emissions by 2030, compared to 2021 levels.
Poland voted against the law. Italy, Bulgaria and Romania abstained.
In late 2020, the UK government banned the sale of new petrol and diesel cars after 2030, a decade earlier than previously announced.
The move was announced as part of a 10-point plan to deliver a Green Industrial Revolution for the UK, offering support for 250,000 jobs.
The plan allows for the sale of several hybrids.
