Next gen electric cars are going to hammer the resale price of both ICE and current EV cars.

Might even be worse we're on the verge of the big global warming panic. At the same time the current pandemic has been showing that the world under a semi command economy is more resilient than neoliberals gaslighted everyone into believing. And thus governments have a lot more wiggle room than they thought. One might find that the resale value of your ICE car is zero.

I don't think climate change related policies matter much in the big picture. Maybe it makes adoption a year or two faster.

EVs are better cars for the majority of people. Once drive out price unequivocally beats ICE, EV adoption will skyrocket.
