In 2022 the European Union, Canada, the U.K. and the U.S. state of California approved regulations banning the sale of new gasoline-powered cars and trucks by 2035. Plug-in hybrids, full electrics and hydrogen cell vehicles would all count toward the zero-emission targets, though auto makers will only be able to use plug-in hybrids to meet 20% of the overall requirement. The regulation will impact only new-vehicle sales and affects only manufacturers, not dealerships. Traditional internal-combustion vehicles will still be legal to own and drive after 2035, and new models can still be sold until 2035. Volkswagen and Toyota have said they aim to sell only zero-emission cars in Europe by that time.

Yes and they should make electric vehicles more affordable
@992W6NB1yr1Y
No, create the economic conditions so private enterprise does
No, however they need to put in place safety regulations and requirements for all new or rebfurbished service stations, government and community precincts and big businesses to include it, so that a network is built naturally where and when it is needed
@98PXTRP1yr1Y
People can’t afford electric vehicles to start with, so it would be pointless
@99BBZHJ1yr1Y
Yes, but only if the power source is renewable
@998CJHD1yr1Y
No electric vehicles are a waste of time
if they build chargers they should also incentivize purchase of electric cars aswell
Yes, in theory,, but only if there is no environmental damage.
@98YKDCP1yr1Y
No this is a folly to replace normal cars etc
