No car company is going to suddenly change plans, that would make no sense, especially when the government shows they are unreliable anyway.
Yea sunaks change doesn’t matter, bigger markets already have full ev rules by x date and Nissan (and others) have aligned their business to meet those. Likely at costs of tens of billions in r&d and factory retooling, they aren’t going to switch back to ICE because the UK pushed their date by a few years
Especially when the party who are massively ahead in the polls have said they'll reintroduce the 2030 ~~when~~ if they get elected.
It really doesn't make sense for them to put off making electric vehicles, considering that's where the market is going anyways.
