I thought this myself for a while. But listen to the soundtrack coming out of Detroit, Dearborn, and Auburn Hills. They are all promising BEV volume in excess of what any regulations currently on the books require. And beyond levels that states like California et al are saying for 2035. That doesn’t sound like they’re being forced. It sorta sounds like they are out in front of the legislation.
