It's not about beholding to oil interests. Does the USA wants to kill all its car manufacturers and commit industry-suicide like the EU just did?
The EU is rendering countless people jobless and handing the auto market to the chinese so they can sell their spying devices on wheels (probably also complete with kill-switches that can be activated from China if needed: say in case of a full on war).
It's just insanity. I think the EU is going to be a case study as to how quickly you can kill an entire industry by voting laws favoring a competing nation state instead of your own nation/countries.

Be very careful what you wish for.
