On July 1, two mandatory national standards—"Safety Requirements for Traction Batteries of Electric Vehicles" (GB 38031-2025) and "Safety Requirements for Electric Vehicles" (GB 18384-2025)—will officially come into force. This marks the first time in China's new energy vehicle sector that both battery‑specific and vehicle‑level core safety standards take effect on the same day. The new battery standard establishes "no fire, no explosion" as a mandatory requirement, replacing the previous technical threshold of "providing an alarm signal 5 minutes before fire or explosion." The updated standard also adds tests including bottom impact testing and safety testing after fast‑charging cycles. The vehicle standard requires the installation of an independent physical one‑button emergency power‑off device. The two standards will be implemented in phases: all newly applied vehicle models submitted after July 1 must fully comply with the new rules, while models already approved and on sale are granted a one‑year transition period until full compliance is required by July 2027. Industry players across the supply chain have already entered the final stages of certification review and production‑line retrofitting.

German automaker Volkswagen plans to terminate its collaboration with automotive supplier Bosch in the field of autonomous driving, according to a report by German newspaper Bild citing multiple sources. The move is part of the company's broader efforts to cut costs and enhance competitiveness. The partnership with Bosch began in 2022, when Volkswagen's software unit Cariad joined forces with Bosch to develop driver‑assistance and autonomous driving software for Volkswagen's various brands.

러시아 대통령 블라디미르 푸틴이 6월 28일 국내 연료 시장 안정화 회의에서 연료 공급을 늘리고 경제적으로 정당한 가격을 유지하기 위한 체계적 조치가 필요하다고 밝혔다. 푸틴 대통령은 대형 정유소가 최대 가동 중이며 중소기업의 잠재력도 동원되었고, 이전에 비축했던 연료가 국내 시장에 방출되었다고 언급했다. 러시아 에너지부 보고서에 따르면 현재 휘발유 비축량은 170만 톤으로 작년 동기와 거의 변동이 없다. 푸틴 대통령은 경유 수출 전면 금지의 필요성을 검토 중이라고 덧붙였다.
