President Biden is determined in electrifying America's auto fleet electric. But the math behind a greener future is harder than it seems as it involves half of all vehicles sold in 2030 to be electric. The President will attempt to get carmakers to commit to reaching at least 40 percent by then, with the potential to rise to 50 percent with the help of generous federal investment.

A Battle On Every Front

Lack Of Charging Infrastructure

At the moment, there are only 100,000 public charging outlets across the nation, out of which about 18,000 arecapable of rapid fill-ups. On Wednesday, Senate Democrats and Republicans sealed a deal providing $7.5 billion for the charging infrastructure of highways, which is only half of the figure now president Biden initially called for. Funding for zero-emissions buses was also cut to $2.5 billion.
