EU needs to ignore the lowball S&P Global prediction ("EVs would make up 63% of new sales in 2035" = BS) and stick to this. a decade is a looooooong way off and it's do-able

Tesla sales in China are declining - but they're not declining as rapidly as BMW & Mercedes (and maybe Audi too?) with their lacklustre and over-priced EVs
