[TPR] Fwd: What a Trump White House Means for SEMA & the SAN

Sun Nov 17 08:50:16 PST 2024

I think Elon Musk introduced a disruption to the industry when he 
released Teslas on the public.  Since then and even before the mandates, 
other auto builders took notice.  The mandates may have tried to force 
the auto industry into pursuing electric much faster than possible, and 
the market has had to push back mostly due to electric infrastructure 
limitations.  Even though the mandates have not yet been repealed, you 
can see the likes of Toyota, Ford, and maybe others who pretty much 
said... no can do; not in the timeframe the administration wanted.

I think EVs are here to stay and will enjoy steady adoption without 
government mandates.  Little nudges always seem to work best, like buyer 
incentives (tax breaks), and utility participation (free charger 
installations).  But there also has to be a balance.  States lose gas 
tax revenue with electric cars, and some don't have a plan to replace 
that.  Others have talked about increasing licensing tax or charging by 
the mile driven.  Things like that still need to be discussed, 
investigated and figured out.

Overall, I agree Trump should nix the EV mandate so the industry and 
market can settle back to normalcy and take the changing course as 
smoothly as possible.

But what do I know. ;)
