While several countries are struggling to grow the electric vehicle segment, some local authorities do not seem to be very happy about the rapid development of the global market. US Congressmen Submit State Proposal Wyoming (USA) to phase out the sale of electric vehicles in the region by 2035. The reason for the controversial idea is simple: according to the authorities, the oil and gas industry is extremely valuable to the place and contributes to job creation and income.

The idea is contrary to the plans of large nations, which are just planning to introduce automotive technology. in the next 12 years. Another aspect that is highlighted is that hypothetically Wyoming does not have the infrastructure to charge these vehicles, while at the same time they claim that the batteries of the products contain minerals that are difficult to recycle.

Regardless of these aspects, we can only wait to see how this situation develops. What is your opinion about this topic? Share your point of view in this post!
