EV sales have lagged expectations, and the shift comes as Europe waters down emissions targets that would allow combustion engines to stay around for longer.

    I don’t see how this would help them compete against small and cheap EVs.

    That’s the magic: it won’t.

    I’m under the impression the companies would rather mop up all quick profits they can right now and then die than committing to new technology and realities that would allow them to still exist in 5+ years time.
