The European Union is proposing watering down rules that would have effectively banned the sale of new combustion engine cars starting in 2035.

That's according to a recently unsealed antitrust lawsuit.
The Federal Trade Commission sued Pepsi during the Biden administration, but dropped the suit after Trump took office.
It was unsealed last week after a push from an anti-monopoly advocacy group.
