Did you read the article? It's specifically new gas cars, so no, everyone doesn't have to buy an EV by 2035.

Yes, EV charging networks are far fewer. Today, in 2023. In 2035 the availability is going to be way better, and by 2040 (when "everyone" has an EV) it's going to be just as easy as gas. Because if it isn't, they'll have to slow things down or risk public outrage.

My mistake - yes this makes sense. If they install an EV charger at every single gas station that would be fantastic.
