The US Congress has passed new legislation that will lead to the expiration of tax credits for electric car purchases, raising questions about the future of the electric car industry. Advocacy organizations warn that the measure will significantly reduce sales of electric vehicles, predicting a 6% drop in penetration by 2030. At the same time, the new law benefits manufacturers of vehicles with internal combustion engines by making it easier to produce them. This policy change could affect America's position in the global auto industry.
