Let’s revisit this in 5 years. At the end of President Trump’s 2nd term.
Trump cannot stop the transition in the high density urban counties, he rightfully should stop the EPA out of control edicts. But he is 100% right without 50% import tariffs BYD and the other low cost 200-300 mile EVs will in his words bloodbath the American industry.
The cost per mile is so favored to EVs over urban distances that transition cannot be stopped. Again the first group with $25K or under 5 passenger sedan with 200 to 300 miles of range and 150kw CCS or NACS standard without import tariffs will kill anyone else in the market space. It’s easy simple math for most people grade school level at that.
