On paper, I'm sure the requirements made sense to some nit wit in Washington, but in the real world, people just don't want electric cars.

Is there any indication that the number of EVs sold is slumping? Data that turned up in my search (EV sales by year: here, here, and here) shows an increase from 2021 to 2022 and into 2023. July sales were a little less than June but is that a saturation in the market or the impact of rising interest rates? Regardless of the nitwit in Washington, the data seem to show that people want electric cars.
