Summary
The incoming Trump administration plans extensive rollbacks on electric vehicle (EV) policies, including eliminating EV subsidies, blocking battery imports, canceling federal EV purchases, and reversing $7.5 billion in charging infrastructure funding.
EPA fuel efficiency standards will revert to 2019 levels, increasing vehicle emissions by 25%.
Trade tariffs, applied globally, will raise EV costs, while California’s stricter emissions rules face renewed opposition.
Public safety regulations, such as crash reporting for automated vehicles, are also set to be repealed.
These policies prioritize fossil fuels and U.S. auto manufacturing over EV adoption and environmental goals.
Quick change system. Drop the battery and lever the new one into place. As long as your pit crew (who train as professional athletes) can get their bespoke engineered stuff into place as fast or faster than a gas refill you’re good to go.
