The EPA is expected to announce new emissions standards tomorrow. The Biden administration wants to accelerate the green revolution by requiring that electric vehicles make up at least 54 percent of automakers’ new car sales by 2030, according to industry sources. NBC News’ Tom Costello shares more on the transition from gas to electric.

Just improve the gasoline car we all know is the better vehicle get more mileage there are ways to make gasoline cleaner. You can do that if you really wanted to.
This administration is destroying the country. Time for a new and better administration
Can’t wait!!!! 🤗
This is going to be hilarious! 😆😂🤣
What could possibly go right? 🥤😎🍿
Maybe Joe can turn the presidential limo into an EV to set and lead by example….don’t be fooled by this all. The push for EV is because less people are buying NEW cars. The auto industry is too big to let crash, so this is a way to ‘force’ people to buy NEW vehicles which in return makes these corporations money.
I see Democrats want to lose some seats badly. Such a revolution needs proper gradualism and infrastructure buildup for the future of EVs, needing more than just a few decades so manufacturers in American can produce an affordable & replaceable abundance of parts and batteries for everyday life. None of lower income customers want to foot huge expenses that only the rich can afford. The electrical grid also would need a massive investment, such as building more nuclear power plants to support the future of EVs. Until then, the ICE tech remains the everyday affordable tech.
Who listens to the clown in the White House?
Are we getting free electric cars and they'll pay for insurance and our electric bill??? 🤣
Making and inventing technology
California, for instance… One good prolonged heat wave and the electric grid is taxed to within an inch of it's life…Yeah, lets add hundreds of thousands of charging stations on top of that….These people are high….
Reporter: Hey bLIEden, do any of ur multiple homes have solar panels on it ??
bLIEden: Well…..no they don't but that's only bc everytime Hunter calls them to make an appointment to have it installed they say their booked. That's total bull!!! No joke.
Toyota thinks this is stupid…..I do too.
Lol infrastructures isn't ready for this. Power and parking lots bc of the weight
Pipe dream…Insanity on steroids…we must FIRE these radical “climate crazies” ..NO way this would work.
🔌 🚘 🤑 💰💰💰💰💰
well he better have a better infrastructure for all evs
Everyday Cheap and fast charging is the biggest one
will be a lithium shortage once the current slaves mining it by hand all die of cancer.
end result? More big trucks will be sold. They have no foresight. When the EPA killed full size passenger cars everyone went to big SUV's and 4 door trucks.
And this is how you disenfranchised and remove the equity out of the working class. Forcing them to buy artesian mine by hand and deplorable away conditions that no human being should have to endure. Well assuming because they can't track the privilege that everyone can afford hunk of s***
Notice how Biden always makes these ludicrous decisions overseas.
You have to be born dumb to want a car that requires a twenty five thousand dollar battery change.
Just got a new 4 runner and I plan to drive it until the wheels literally fall off. Which will be a very long time.
Thank God Pelosi bought all that stock in electric cars…or have we forgotten about that?
biden wants you to get an electric vehicle. the current grid cannot generate the extra 30% capacity needed to charge those vehicles, but joetato isn't bother by details
What seems to make sense in the "real world" is the plug in EV versions that blend gasoline and electric engines to extend mileage. You use the EV for daily trips under 33 miles or so and stretch the miles per gallon. An alternative on the horizon is Hydrogen powered vehicles that generate water as "waste". It's high flammability requires the tanks to be reinforced in case of accidents. Of course, the elites will still use their private jets. The treasonous undermining of the country is well under way.
Noblesse oblige!
It should be illegal to plug thoughs into the grid cause they said its causing blackouts. Make a battery charging station that’s solar powered or something.
ITS TIME TO MOVE THIS COUNTRY INTO THE FUTURE !!!!
Most modern cars have the cleanest emission's. Air planes are the biggest polluters. you never see climate activist protesting at any airport! No fossil fuel means no air travel, no rail, no ships, no tractor trailers, no buses, no farm equipment, no tractors , no construction equipment,…You cannot pick and choose! Oh, wait the power just went out!!!!!
The biggest lie is evs 100% safe for the earth I was eveyone can see it. Another thing instead of getting rid of gas cars how about keeping them & have evs ? Cause lets be honest a whole ev world is more of aa fantasy
Send me 10k so i can buy one
No need in abiding by what he says. He and Harris will be gone soon enough. The real problem is Obama pulling the strings of these puppets in the background
So with the rising inflation and wages not going up, how are Americans supposed to afford these?
They are not electric powered, they run on coal!
just get a self-charging car out there. thanks
Are these protected by Solar Flares or Coronal Mass Ejectiond from the sun?!
Let's talk about the processes that are used to mine the resources used to make these batteries and the effects that have on the environment.
Tom Costello you can do a better report. This is a biased FUD piece. Fear change. It's too expensive. Waaaah wahh wahh. Same story for 30 years. Waste time and effort attacking the EPA instead of finding ways to make this work.
The manufacturing of EV vehicles makes a huge carbon footprint, and the resources to charge these vehicles are non-renewable, they are no better than what we have now, just trendy with a huge price tag.
This administration needs to go now! Nothing they're doing is realistic or good! Bring back the mean tweet guy an $2 gas.
Nah bro I’m keeping my 1999 gas guzzling vehicle
Climate Change is a farse and electric cars are bigger pollutants than gas cars and Biden knows it and he’s covering it up. Gas cars are much cheaper
Electric cars that will fail and blow up causing house fires
The youth like EVs better, so that’s what really matters. Embrace the fast change and let the rest of the world catch up. It’s beneficial for all of us.
How can apartment dwellers plug in? How long will it take to provide charging for every apartment resident's car? Who will pay for that? How do you travel cross country without stopping for hours every few hundred miles to recharge?
The US states most dependent upon oil, gas and coal industries? The Republican-led states of Wyoming, Alaska, West Virginia, North Dakota, Oklahoma and Texas.
We have nowhere near enough power to charge all these cars no one is buying..insanity
