China has done the same thing with EVs that it did with solar panels - ie dominating the market through massive subsidies of their manufacturing base, creating an oversupply and the ability to undersell any other manufacturer.

Once the battery problem is solved, it will be game over for ICE vehicles.

In my lifetime, I’ve seen the federal government bail out major US auto companies more than once. It’s going to take more than tariffs on EVs.

Seemingly Trump’s response to all this is going to be tariffs on EVs and more fossil fuel development. A loser’s strategy.

This will drive up the need for fossil fuel for the increase in stress on the grid and the "green" gain will disappear. It's yet another scam...
