Canada Replaces EV Mandate with Stricter Emission Standards

New Emission Reduction Strategy

• 🇨🇦 Canada is setting a new, more ambitious path to reduce automobile emissions by doubling the stringency of GHG standards by 2035.
• 🎯 This aims to achieve emission reductions equivalent to a 75% EV adoption rate by 2035.

Future EV Adoption Goals

• 🚀 Canada plans to work towards the equivalent of a 90% EV adoption rate by 2040.
• ⚡ This will be supported by new investments in EV production, consumer incentives, and charging infrastructure.

Repealing the EV Accessibility Standard

• 💡 The government will repeal the so-called Electric Vehicle Accessibility Standard (EVAS).
• ✅ This repeal is enabled by the introduction of the more stringent vehicle emission standards.

Focus on Results and Industry Support

• 📊 The new approach focuses on the results that matter to Canadians.
• 🛠️ It aims to avoid placing undue burdens on the Canadian auto industry while still achieving significant emission reductions.
