I wonder how much of this is because liberals now want to buy new internal combustion cars instead of EVs, versus buying used, versus not owning a car entirely?

A quick look at the underlying study, and figure 1 is fascinating to me, as somebody who really supports individual climate action - because it shows what individual climate mitigations are politically slanted and which aren't. Buying an EV? Super politically slanted. Flying less? Not.

VW has said they are returning to physical buttons. It will be interesting to see if other manufacturers do as well. I’m waiting to see what the next GM Bolt looks like, since the previous version had buttons.
