Why export restrictions (especially to Africa) is a good thing? I think that it is quite opposite: * from looking at basic car sales statistics EV are basically non-existent in Africa, there is no infrastructure etc. (apart from fact that almost nobody could afford them) * 2000-ish cars are usually quite simple to repair, no advanced electronic etc. * producing new car probably will waste more resources and emit more pollution than using and repairing old one
