Washington, D.C. – In a recent press conference at the White House, former President Donald Trump expressed his admiration for electric vehicles—particularly Tesla—and its CEO, Elon Musk. Despite recent policy tensions surrounding federal EV subsidies, Trump struck a conciliatory tone toward the electric vehicle pioneer.
"Many people love electric cars. They love Tesla… and I love it too, quite honestly," Trump stated. "I love Tesla. I love Elon Musk. But I also love internal combustion engines."
Trump addressed recent criticism regarding reductions in electric vehicle subsidies, emphasizing that the move was part of a broader economic strategy aimed at curbing government spending, rather than a personal decision targeting Musk or the EV industry.
"Every American should be free to choose any car — electric or not," he added, reinforcing a message of consumer freedom and market choice.
While Trump praised innovation in the automotive sector, he reaffirmed his support for traditional fuel-powered vehicles, suggesting they will continue to play a vital role in America’s transportation future.
