Yup. That’s a difficult balancing act. Thing is, nobody wants North American cars except North Americans. The rest of the world is going to EVS while we spend billions (which Stellantis is still in debt for IIRC) propping up and industry that has retrenched back to huge gas guzzlers.

It is reminiscent of the 1970s energy crisis. We bailed out Chrysler (and Ford?) while they surrendered market to smaller, more efficient, European and Japanese imports.
