It promotes investing into electric cars tight now. Without the bans, some investors might be hopeful to still profit beyond the 30s. But with the ban, it's clear for all investors to invest in electric cars.

True, but why set a limit in 30-40 years?

Thats a whole generation, most people that work today will be retired by then (hopefully).

30 to 40 years ago, lead-free fuel, catalytic converters, airbags, and ABS became more common and started to become standard.

Because it is a useless gesture.

A polly knows they will likely not be in power when they set the target so when time comes their party can say 'see we had a plan but you voted us out of office so we couldn't act on it and the people you voted in didn't follow through with our plan.'
