- Pa. bill aims to create a level playing field for direct-to-consumer EV sales
A Pennsylvania bill aims to allow electric vehicle manufacturers like Rivian to sell directly to consumers without dealerships, a model currently permitted only for Tesla. The legislation, passed by the House Commerce Committee, seeks to modernize laws that have restricted direct sales to Tesla since 2014. Support from EV manufacturers and opposition from some lawmakers highlight the debate over dealership safeguards and business models.
