Trump to disallow any ban of petrol cars if elected

The Straits Times

|

October 05, 2024

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Oct 3 that if he is elected in November, no state will be able to ban petrol-powered cars or trucks, as he seeks to make the future of the auto industry a key campaign issue.

Trump is looking to win votes in Michigan, a key swing state in the 2024 presidential election that is home to the Detroit Three automakers. He told Reuters in August he is considering ending the electric vehicle (EV) tax credit.

"When I am president, no state in America will be permitted to ban gas-powered cars or trucks, and I guarantee it - no way," Trump said at a rally in Saginaw, Michigan. “You are going to make them right here.”

Vice-President Kamala Harris' campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
