As EV sales growth slows in the U.S., Jalopnik’s Rory Carroll explores a crucial question: What if Americans say ‘no’ to an EV revolution? Despite crossing the 5% adoption mark, the expected surge in EV sales hasn’t materialized. Companies like GM and Ford are scaling back production, while Tesla’s Elon Musk remains pessimistic. High EV prices and inadequate charging infrastructure are major hurdles. Carroll argues that serious government intervention, including subsidies and regulatory reform, is necessary. If these issues remain unresolved, alternative solutions like electric bikes, scooters, and smaller EVs might be the key to reducing emissions in the U.S.
