U.S. Senate panel moves to bar Chinese EV sales; Tesla shifts from EVs to robots
The U.S. Senate Commerce Committee plans a vote on a bipartisan bill that would effectively ban Chinese automakers from selling passenger EVs in the United States and further restrict entry into the small-car market. Tesla is removing the Model S and Model X assembly line at its Fremont plant and converting the space for humanoid robot Optimus production. Tesla will shift its supervised FSD option in South Korea from a lump-sum payment to a monthly subscription from Aug. 10.
