A group of over 5,000 car dealers has expressed concerns about inadequate consumer demand for electric vehicles, urging the government to ease fuel efficiency regulations.
The car dealers emphasized that the shift to mandatory zero-emissions vehicles by 2035 would exacerbate pricing issues for gasoline-powered cars and limit their inventory.
Dealers claim that insufficient consumer knowledge regarding electric vehicles—such as charging infrastructure, battery lifespan, and performance in cold weather—hinders EV adoption.
Despite previous high growth rates, EV sales are now only increasing modestly, prompting dealers to question the sustainability of such mandates without stronger demand.
