U.S. EV dominance requires supply chain sovereignty, consumer literacy, and infrastructure parity simultaneously

Davies argues that American EV market leadership is contingent on solving three interconnected operational challenges: securing domestic battery materials and manufacturing, educating consumers on EV benefits to drive adoption, and building charging infrastructure that eliminates range anxiety. Without simultaneous progress on all three fronts, U.S. automakers risk ceding global dominance to international competitors despite their current market position.
