It will result in people keeping their vehicles longer and buy used vehicles when they do change vehicles.

It will also depend on how they calculate EVs into the overall fuel mileage of the entire fleet of manufacturer vehicles.

For example, Ford sells Electric Mustangs and F-150s, if they sell one gas powered F-150 that gets 20 mpg and one electric F-150, would that average 40 mpg which seems somewhat logical.

My VW TDI would do 47-48 mpg with great performance…but alas that couldn’t be allowed…bring back the horse and buggy I reckon…this country is being quickly destroyed…

You would think but I believe leftist states like Washington have laws or or contemplating laws that will ban the registration of gas powered cars as of 2030. Is resistance futile?

Yup, you’re right. It will all be about the formula. As an example, heavy duty trucks will probably be exempt. So, guess what? Instead of driving my current Silverado 1500 I will drive a Silverado 2500. 😉
