General Motors (GM.US) stated that the Canadian government's plan to gradually eliminate subsidies for electric vehicles is not very timely.
Kristian Aquilina, President of General Motors Canada, stated that the Canadian government has set aggressive goals to gradually phase out gasoline-powered automobiles, and believes that the timing of subsidy elimination is not appropriate as directives and regulations begin to take effect, and it will definitely impact sales.
He mentioned that General Motors and dealers will work very hard to overcome this issue, but also added that other support can also promote adoption, such as better charging infrastructure.
