Trump can get EVs back on track

Live Mint  

Federal and state governments have been trying to persuade Americans to buy battery-electric vehicles using mandates and taxpayer-financed incentives. The incoming administration can course correct by replacing these mandates and subsidies with policies that give customers affordable options while helping reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Data from the Environmental Protection Agency show that, between 2017-22, Toyota outpaced all other manufacturers in reducing average greenhouse gas emissions from its new vehicles. But EPA mandates harm the auto industry’s ability to offer a variety of zero- or low-emissions vehicle options at different price points and with different characteristics. This will distort the auto industry as companies funnel zero-emission vehicles to the states that have adopted California’s rules, severely limiting the choices that consumers in those states want or can afford.
