		gpm 4 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Canada slashes 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs to 6% 49,000 is less than 20% of 264,277... Besides which Canadian manufacturers have been extremely reluctant to make EVs, so I really don't see that there's a domestic "EV market" we should be protecting.

"Zero emission" has included PHEV [1] like the 20 mile electric range Jeep Wrangler, that gets 20MPG when running on fuel.

That 264,277 is not all BEV.
