    The US EV market is only stalling because the lobbyist are purposefully crippling development, the manufacturers are circlejerking each other, and every foreign brand either has no interest in selling in the US, or is banned from doing so

      A big portion of the market in the US is from foreign brands. The only domestic companies are Tesla, Rivian, GM, and Ford. The rest is Hyundai, Kia, VW, BMW, Toyota, etc. China isn’t banned from selling here but like in Europe, has a tariff because they’re trying to manipulate the market with unsustainable subsidies for their own national brands at the exclusion of everyone else.
