“ Alliance for Automotive Innovation, a car-industry trade group. Shielding cables and components to reduce interference would cost carmakers $3.8 billion over seven years, the group estimates.”
It’s interesting that they chose 7 years, circa 2030. I would love to see the actual variables used. Did they assume every car on the road will be EV to comply with net zero?
Is so, that’s $13.57 per vehicle. Sounds about right but, oh, such a scary number. An alternative narrative would be 3 gallons of gas in California. For the greenies it converts to 26kw, or less than an hour of charging time for your EV. One salad at Whole Foods salad bar.
Such drama.
