And that won't stop EVs from failing to sell. The government can try to force top down adoption all they want, and it won't work. Just like with piracy, people will break the rules to get a better product. If a government favored item is a better product, they won't have to force it because people will adopt it on their own from the bottom up.
Like how it has worked for every single advancement in technology through history.
The average cost of an EV is around $55k. We're in an "unspoken" recession, a bad time for car sales of any make or model. Without the tax subsidies, nobody is looking twice at a $50k EV that also costs double in insurance premiums compared to a real car. Big Auto saw it coming months ago, which is why they've slashed their EV projects, workforce and their production to instead invest in development of next-gen V8s.
Unless Trump transitions into a woman or Vance steals the throne sooner, EVs are dead for the next decade.
