- Italy wants the E.U. to pause or delay its plan to ban internal-combustion car sales by 2035.
- The country's far-right government says the plan is "absurd" amid falling demand.
- Italy's auto industry will "collapse" if the plan continues, the government argues, calling into question how prepared Fiat, Maserati and Ferrari are for the electric era.
Italy is asking the European Union to scrap its internal-combustion vehicle ban, saying it'll trigger an industry "collapse" if it proceeds as scheduled.
