MR. MAGOO JOE BIDEN ABOLISHES ALL CARS BY EXECUTIVE ORDER
"Nobody will be allowed to drive a car under a new regulation from the Biden's Administrations Enviornmental Protection Agency, so just Mr. Magoo Joe Biden gets to drive," says Eugene Delgaudio, president of Public Advocate.
The Biden administration finalized its crackdown on gas cars Wednesday, with the Environmental Protection Agency announcing drastic climate regulations meant to ensure more than two-thirds of passenger cars and light trucks sold by 2032 are electric or hybrid vehicles.
The EPA rule imposes strict limits on tailpipe pollution, limits the agency says can be met if 56% of new vehicles sold in the US are electric by eight years from now, along with 13% that are plug-in hybrids or other partially electric cars. That would be a huge increase over current EV sales, which rose to 7.6% of new vehicle sales last year, up from 5.8% in 2022.
Despite the relatively low demand - which has led to auto manufacturers scaling back planned investment in electric vehicle manufacturing - the EPA insisted that carmakers have not had any "change in & intentions regarding PEVs generally or specifically."
