Some of the top ten cars and trucks are offered as hybrids (electric and gas), but they currently do not out-sell the traditional, internal-combustion-engine-run cars and trucks.

No doubt, electric (and hybrid) car sales are slowly growing. In 2019, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics, a total of 700,407 EVs, battery-run, and hybrids were sold in the U.S. However, in that same year, total used and new car sales totaled 62,107,000. So, the EVs, battery-run, and hybrids made up about 1.12% of U.S. car sales (used and new) that year.

They want us to raise our AC temperatures because it consumes too much electricity, yet they are trying to force us to plug hundreds of millions of cars into the grid. lol.

There should be no tax credit for EVs and no gas guzzler tax on normal cars in a saner world.
