Automakers say U.S. Senate bill will jeopardize 2030 EV targets
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A group representing General Motors, Toyota Motor, Volkswagen and other major automakers said a $430 billion bill approved Sunday by the U.S. Senate will put achieving U.S. electric-vehicle adoption targets for 2030 in jeopardy.

The group had warned Friday that most EV models would not qualify for a $7,500 tax credit for U.S. buyers under the bill.
