The Supremes May Force You to Drive An EV Thanks To The Misnamed Inflation Reduction Act
by Thomas McArdle Apr 1, 2024 in EV News, News And Opinion
The Biden administration has just required that the majority of automotive vehicles manufactured be electric by 2032, inflicting upon the American people troublesome cars whose price is an exorbitant $53,500 on average and that cost a fortune to repair. [emphasis, links added]
House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) warned that the move will “devastate auto manufacturers.”
While electric vehicles (EVs) totaled less than 8 percent of sales of new cars last year, the Biden rule demands that they reach as much as 56 percent in less than a decade and as much as 36 percent for plug-in hybrid vehicles.
The regulatory method to be employed is mandating that automakers cut carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by more than half by eight years from now.

There's only nine of them. They can't 'force' me to do jack shit.
Oh the goon squads might make life difficult, or even end it, but If I dig in my heels, it isn't happening.
There are only about 200 registered EVs in my State. There's a reason.
Cut CO2 emissions by half? I wonder what the impact of NOT making the required EVs would be.

From the article….

Along with American consumers, especially those with lower incomes
For a party that claims to care about the average working person, they sure find a lot of new ways to punish those people
