Clean Fuels Michigan

What's the future of EVs in Michigan? In an interview with WXYZ-TV, industry experts were asked about the future of EVs in Michigan, in light of recent policy changes: “Being the Motor City, the world does watch us in terms of vehicles and we have to remain on the cutting edge. And I believe that it really does require the metro Detroit market as well as the state of Michigan to continue to have the infrastructure so that people will invest in the technology, so that people will buy the electric vehicles.” -Terrance McFadden, UAW Union Steward "Market forces are going to work globally and we do know that the Chinese auto industry, which didn’t exist just the other day, is a global threat to us both around the world and potentially here in North America that we need to be prepared for. And standing still is not an option.” - Glenn Stevens Jr., MichAuto Executive Director #Manufacturing #Detroit #Jobs #EconomicGrowth #Mobility #EVs #Innovation #DriveElectricMI #ElectricVehicles #Transportation #cleantech

Increased costs on imported materials like batteries and components for EVs could raise vehicle prices, slow down production, and impact thousands of jobs in manufacturing and supply chains. ????
