US Government set to ban Chinese software and hardware in cars

AutoExec Summary: The US Government is expected to propose banning Chinese software and hardware in new vehicles due to concerns about data collection. The ban would affect driver assist and infotainment technology, with a 2027 software ban and 2029 hardware ban. The proposal would also apply to other countries, such as Russia. Chinese-made cars in the US are rare, including models from Buick, Lincoln, Polestar, and Volvo. The move comes after the US Government imposed tariff hikes on Chinese imports, including electric vehicles and lithium-ion batteries.
