In its reporting of its Top 20 Cases of 2025, The Lawyer details that the 10-week technical trial, due to commence in October 2025, "will be the High Court’s first opportunity to consider the EU Emissions Regulation following the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, and all 19 manufacturers will be bound by its findings, regardless of whether they participate in the trial."
The technical trial in October 2025 will be followed by a three-week trial in Spring 2026 to hear closing submissions and an eight-week quantum trial expected to start in October 2026.
Additionally, the report notes that "The litigation has seen 13 Group Litigation Orders (GLOs) made, which amounts to around 10 per cent of all GLOs ever granted by the English High Court."
