👉 Within nine years, half of all new vehicles sold in the United States should be zero-emission cars and trucks, according to an executive order signed by President Biden.   

The future of the automobile industry is electric, "and there's no turning back," the president said during a White House South Lawn event Thursday afternoon.   

Biden's target includes battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric and fuel cell electric vehicles.  

Ford, General Motors and Stellantis said in a joint statement Thursday they hope "to achieve sales of 40-50% of annual U.S. volumes of electric vehicles (battery electric, fuel cell and plug-in hybrid vehicles) by 2030 in order to move the nation closer to a zero-emissions future consistent with Paris climate goals."
