How do you want to push Automakers into compliance? Every single European Automaker is begging people to buy their EVs, yet the amount of buyers is no where near where regulators want them to be. What would you do to Automakers?
Making cars in Europe is getting near impossible, "draconian" measures mean that indeed no European Automaker will make ICE cars any more, because they will all be bankrupt.
The real problem regulators can't regulate away is that people are not buying EVs, even when manufacturers are selling them at prices where they barely break even.

- orwin 1y agoI think it really depends on car. A friend of mine bought a R5, it took 6 weeks to be delivered because of the backlog, so I guess: build better cars?
- constantcrying 1y agoSure and VW has recently announced their competitor car. This of course does not answer the question about which draconic measures the car industry should be subjected to. Additionally, long delays can be for other reasons than high demands.
