The Bipartisan Infrastructure Plan Aims To Kickstart Electric Vehicles

Range anxiety is a hurdle for those interested in electric vehicles. The new infrastructure deal calls for 500,000 new charging stations in the U.S.

President Joe Biden's American Jobs Plan includes $7.5 billion to build out a national network of 500,000 EV charging stations.  This new funding will help the U.S. start moving toward Biden’s goal of electric vehicles accounting for half of all new car sales by 2030, but experts tell Newsy this federal funding will likely not be enough to kick EV adoption into high gear.  Devin Lindsay is the Principal Analyst of North American Powertrain Forecasting at IHS Markits.
