This probably had as much to do with ESG scores and financing as it did a deliberate strategy to force the EV upon a customer.
Along with that, there was a massive gaslighting campaign to promote EVs as being so much better than ICE vehicles. People bringing up points about weather, charging times, grid capacity, charger availability, etc. were dismissed as Luddites.
What change the attitude of the public toward EVs? EVs. Enough people finally bought them that a more honest picture of their pros and cons was able to overwhelm the gaslighting. The result was that more and more people realized the technology and infrastructure aren't anywhere near the claims in many instances and that the cost to repair can be astronomical.
