Just another greedy democrat scheme

The car manufacturers will be fined $25,000 if they don’t ship enough electric cars to California. What happens if China doesn’t send enough batteries? Or the price of lithium goes sky high?
Or will auto manufacturers just not ship any cars to California? Or will they be forced to jack the price up?

"What happens if China doesn’t send enough batteries?"
We'll enact more carbon taxes so that we can ship them more coal for cheaper.

The elites want you living in a cubicle and riding mass transit so they can loot your paycheck for the difference.

They want to be able to shut off your car whenever they feel like it...

That too!
Imagine that classic British sports car with Lucas Electrical that can't be shut down by 5G.
Old Harleys with magneto ignitions.

What if you park here? Do you run an extension cord from your apartment? Who’s gonna pay to install hundreds of stations and who pays? Will you have an assigned charger? What if someone pulls into your space and uses your charger? What if an unhoused person decides to camp in your spot and charge you to use the charging station? So many questions.

I just did a simple google search and found 7 cars for sale (no clearance/discount) at ~$30k. Two more at ~$25k.

So... You should stop listening to your senator and actually check the information out yourself.

Yes... you don't know what Kelly Blue Book is.... got it...

You're naïve enough to think that your senator pulled the lowest price out of the book and was honest about it.

Got it.

No... I know what Kelly Blue Book average price means... LOL

Thank you for taking that bait. So let's assume you know what this book covers and it only talks about "Average EV" overall that it's some book that only does inclusive work of a certain type motorized vehicle.

You're forgetting the fact to make an average, you have to have a highest number and a lowest number. Providing an average is not a great model for legislation. You should look to standard deviations for that. *Far* more accurate.

Now, let's focus on what KBB actually does, KBB focuses on the average price *per model. Not per motorvehicle type. Otherwise you'd have "Gas cars" and "electric cars" without models. So let's assume that I'm still wrong. That it does *all of this* It *can* lump all vehicles together for each motor type *and* model separately. So, providing an average price for a motor type is disingenuine because it does not reflect the quantity and rate of purchases/sales for each vehicle, such as the ones at the top or at the bottom. So, yeah...

Can you tell me how this book works?

Mind you, these EVs were new, not used.
