President Donald Trump has ordered his administration to reconsider subsidies and policies that favor electric vehicles, a move that could slow the adoption of cleaner cars in the US. The directive, part of a broader energy-focused executive order, aims to eliminate what it sees as “government-imposed market distortions” benefiting EVs. This comes as the US lacks a federal mandate for electric vehicle sales, but state regulations and pollution limits encourage carmakers to offer more eco-friendly models.
