On January 21, the 47th President of the United States, Trump, was sworn in at the Capitol and announced in his inaugural speech that he would cancel support for the electric vehicle industry. Trump signed an executive order requiring the government to cancel the electric vehicle mandate, freeze government funds for the construction of car charging stations, and consider canceling electric vehicle tax credits and subsidies.
Trump said that these regulations unfairly restrict consumers' right to choose and asked regulators to consider canceling unfair subsidies and other government-imposed market distortions.
The Trump administration will end states' exemptions from adopting zero-emission vehicle rules by 2035 and ask regulators to consider canceling unfair subsidies and other government-imposed market distortions. These measures are considered to favor electric vehicle technology and force consumers to buy electric vehicles in disguise. Trump believes that these policies restrict consumers' right to choose and unfairly favor electric vehicle technology.
