Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers React To Quebec Plan On Transportation Electrification

Press release

Electric and Plug-in hybrid vehicles are available and growing in popularity in Quebec and throughout North America, and our members are actively bringing forward new and more advanced models with enhanced electric range and features. The Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association (CVMA) supports collaborative efforts to expand electric vehicle adoption through consumer incentives and necessary improvements to recharging infrastructure.

However, policies that force consumer technology purchase decisions, like a ZEV mandate, impact the selection and availability of vehicles for sale in Quebec, without first considering and addressing Quebecers' automotive needs, driving range, pocketbook, or access to re-charging at work, to get to work or wherever else they need to travel. Collaborative approaches that support rather than limit Quebecers' choice would accelerate electric vehicle adoption and help our shared effort to reduce on-road greenhouse gas emissions.
