Proponents argue that it significantly cuts pollution and advances the transition to renewable energy sources. Opponents argue that it increases vehicle costs, limits consumer choice, and may strain the electric grid.

cars should be prodominently electric by 2035. And all diesel cars should be registered as historical monuments that can be legal to drive anytime
@9WKJ9XZ5mos5MO
No, eletric cars should be banned as they are more harmful to the environment than petrol or disel cars
@B49S67P3 days3D
There needs to be more recharging options for the amount of vehicles the country wants to replace. Forcing constituents to replace their vehicles will impact their finances. Low income or fixed income earners will be greatly impacted
@B49RVNX3 days3D
Current technology has not achieved a viable alternative. The government should invest in R&D and find better solutions not mandate intermediary measures that are flawed.
@B47JH7V6 days6D
Yes, but some people might not be able to afford a electric or hybrid car and might have to keep an old fuel one.
@B3BDQRZ1mo1MO
No, not until the infrastructure to support these vehicles are country wide and vehicles have at least 600km charges for rural areas
@B39866F1mo1MO
no but add more PT PL RH adding 5-10 percent more and cat converters must be made from a titanium alloy from the muffler to 10cm past the cat and government will make it for new cars and invest into hydrogen cell vehicles and MR-MC trucks will stay diesel helping others also getting a hybrid evs etc. (expect for Tesla's and chinesium car witch both are banned
@B38YCYR1mo1MO
How realistic would this be particularly in WA given how far people need to travel in a day. If this was to be enforced there needs be support for low income and pension card holders and for people with disabilities as there are limited affordable cost for wheelchair vehicles
