Regardless of the nitwit in Washington, the data seem to show that people want electric cars.

Yes there is information that EV sales are slowing. Both GM and Ford announced within the last week major delays in their development and expansion of their EV lines. According to their press releases they are seeing a softening of demand for all EV models. GM reduced their projected sales of EV's for next year from 1,000,000 to something like 600,000. This year I believe they are projecting to sell app 70,000.
