Biden confirms his goals for electric cars

President Biden hopes that 50% of all new cars sold in the United States by 2030 will be all-electric, plug-in hybrids, or hydrogen hybrids.

According to senior government officials, the president set that goal in an executive order that could be enacted later today.

Additionally, his administration is proposing new fuel economy and emissions standards that would reverse the Trump administration's removal of pre-Obama regulations for cars produced by 2025.

Biden also signed an executive order directing the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to establish strict long-term rules to support his 2030 goals, which include medium and heavy-duty vehicles. .

"When I say electric cars are the future, I'm not kidding," the president said on Twitter.

This planned switching from the internal combustion engine is not as difficult as the methods proposed or presented to the world.

The European Union has proposed an effective ban on the sale of new gasoline-powered passenger cars by 2035. However, France has banned the phasing out of hybrid vehicles, which still run on fossil fuels.

Britain hopes to stop selling new internal combustion engine cars by 2030.

China hopes all new cars sold in 2035 will be at least hybrids. But the goal is that 50% of cars should be hybrid, battery-powered or hydrogen.

California is a leader in national environmental regulations and plans to ban new gasoline cars by 2035.

Biden's new government proposal has been supported by a number of major automakers. The company will separately announce its goals for electric vehicles in its fleet later in the day.

When Biden announced the executive order and the proposed rules, representatives from General Motors, Ford and Stellantis accompanied him.

However, according to Reuters, three major Detroit automakers have pledged to achieve 40 to 50 percent of new car sales by 2030, which is the common goal for electric vehicles.

They also called on the government to get more involved in incentives for new electric vehicles, as well as to expand incentives to manufacture electric vehicles and the supply chain in the United States.

The Biden government has campaigned to include electric vehicles in the bipartisan infrastructure law. Although some of the proposed investments (such as charging stations) were cut during the negotiations, this is still the case.

Currently, all electric vehicles make up only about 2% of total sales in the United States. Although it has risen sharply in the past few months.

Driven by the success of the Tesla Model 3 and Model Y, more than 100,000 fully electric vehicles were sold in the United States in the second quarter of 2021.

Hybrid car sales can also be increased to more than 250,000 units. 200% increase every year.
