I thought lots of European countries had upcoming bans on the sale of new ICE cars. So surely this is just getting ahead of that.

    Define 'lots'.

    Because around half of the EU (and an even larger share of Europe) has next to zero EV infrastructure in place. Banning ICE cars would be banning cars, period.

    If 'lots' is France, Germany, and Switzerland, then yeah, maybe.

    I'm Norwegian, and I've had two rowdtrips to the northern part of Italy with two different ECS, a Hyundai Kona some five years ago and a Tesla Model 3 two years ago. No stress, only Italy was a little bit weak five years ago. So things are definitely improving
