Senior Trump administration officials told media and trade professionals at the Washington, D.C., Auto Show Public Policy Day last month that "green" regulations imposed by Democrats in the Biden administration — aimed at replacing gas-powered vehicles with electric vehicles — were over.

The auto industry has already begun responding, shifting away from an aggressive focus on electric vehicles (EVs) and back toward producing gas-powered and hybrid vehicles that consumers actually want to buy. The Trump administration said this shift will help reduce the cost of new cars for the average American.
