Canadian government sticks to 2026 zero-emission vehicle sales target

The Canadian government is sticking to its 2026 zero-emission vehicle sales target of 20% of sales, but the industry warns that the goal is unrealistic. Electric vehicles are currently 23%-31% more expensive than fuel vehicles, and the construction of charging infrastructure is slow. If the goal is forced, it may lead to increased supply chain pressure, costs passed on to consumers, and even vehicle shortages.
