From Transport Evolved.
We’re heading toward the end of 2024 – and with the U.S. Government likely to go through some pretty big changes in policy toward EVs and the environment, there’s a lot of fear, uncertainty and doubt about the future of EVs.
Some commentators say EVs will be killed, unceremoniously, while others state that EVs were never in demand in the first place.
But as we’re about to explain – EVs are bigger than they’ve ever been, and unlike past moments in history when EVs were sidelined, there’s a lot going in EVs favor this time…
