The US government is planning to change auto emissions standards in a way that means automakers would need to sell a lot more electric vehicles.

Without these requirements, electric vehicles would have reached that sort of market share sometime after 2035, according to Moody’s industry analyst Matthias Heck. The goals laid out by the EPA are manageable, he said, but it won’t be easy and high levels of investment would be needed. For now, the proposal is still just that, a proposal, and could well change before before being finalized, Heck pointed out.

In California, where EVs are more popular and there are more models available, EV market share is already expected to reach the two-thirds mark before 2032. California plans to allow the sale of only fully electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles by 2035, a goal it’s on the way to meeting, according to Corey Cantor, an analyst with Bloomberg NEF.

Well then, we'll need quite a bit more electricity. I keep getting notices during the summer from my local electric company SDGE NOT to use electricity and NOT to charge an electric car. What's the Electical Grid Plan?

Good. Better for the environment. Put charging stations everywhere.

You mean to say increasing signal to noise ratio minimums as a condition to maintaining a manufacturing license?

The government forcing electric cars on people. Kinda sounds illegal to me.

More government overreach.

Terrible idea to madate less profit. It's like these people don't understand how economics work.
