Ashes to ashes: The electric vehicle mandate is well and truly dead

The recent announcement that the federal electric vehicle mandate is officially dead marks a significant shift in the automotive landscape. As of September 30, major automakers can no longer access the $7,500 tax credit, which had previously helped boost the appeal of electric vehicles. This change is crucial as it reflects a growing skepticism about the viability of electric cars among consumers, many of whom have shown little interest in adopting them. The end of this subsidy could lead to a reevaluation of the future of electric vehicles in the U.S. market.
