Episode Details

California’s bold plan to ban new gas car sales by 2035 is hitting resistance—two-thirds of voters aren’t thrilled. Opposition is strongest in inland areas, among middle-class, older, and Republican residents, who cite EV costs, charging hassles, and unpredictable electricity prices. Despite Newsom’s push and rebates, public buy-in remains low, revealing a gap between climate ideals and daily realities. Incoming Governor Becerra even calls the 2035 deadline unrealistic, echoing public sentiment. While California leads in EV adoption, ditching gas cars entirely? That road’s got potholes.
