The new framework aims to provide timely insights into the transition's pace and obstacles, supporting more informed decisions by policymakers and industry leaders.

Building on a comprehensive gap analysis, the initial quarterly update focuses on four critical areas:

Electricity grid – assessing whether current infrastructure can keep pace with rising electric vehicle (EV) charging needs.
Consumer perspective – evaluating the affordability, accessibility, and attractiveness of EVs for the broader population.
Charging infrastructure – measuring whether the number and distribution of charging stations are sufficient.
Manufacturing – analyzing the competitiveness of energy prices and the EU's battery production capacity.
The update comes as the EU continues implementing its Automotive Industrial Action Plan. Although the report finds that progress is being made, it also highlights persistent gaps that could hinder the transition if not swiftly addressed.

TML emphasizes that closing these gaps will require coordinated efforts across sectors, adaptable regulation, and long-term investment. Regular KPI monitoring, updated quarterly, will help ensure that implementation stays aligned with the EU's climate and industrial objectives.
