They better get refund because most people would still get an EV if they can afford one.

An inconvenient truth is a very large fraction of Americans dislike EVs and are ideologically/culturally married to ICEVs as part of their "culture"/"identity", and don't care about ecology or climate change. Manufactured consent probably has something to do with it. It's irrational because the TCO of EVs is obviously cheaper than ICEVs.

The article is incoherent.

Another data point that the auto industry is prioritizing protecting the status quo and profits over electrification.
