"Challenges and Opportunities for Electric Car Sales in the US"

TL;DR Summary
The Biden administration has proposed a new climate regulation for passenger cars that would limit how much planet-warming emissions can come from an automaker’s fleet, projecting that 60% of new cars sold will be electric by model year 2030. Experts say a lot needs to be done both technically and in terms of consumer mindset to make this a reality, but many also say it’s possible. Consumer behavior is key, with cost and charging infrastructure being the most common major reasons not to buy electric vehicles. The US would need 1.5 million public chargers to meet the president’s previously stated goal of 50% of new sales being electric by 2030.
