Eventually, they want everyone driving EVs that they control, which can only be recharged with a Central Bank Digital Currency that they control. From Eric Peters at ericpetersautos.com:

If you’ve been following the pushing of battery powered devices (EVs) you have heard and read all about the hassle of living with a vehicle that can’t be used for long periods of time because it’s tethered to a charger.
But there’s also something sinister about these devices that’s not being discussed in the news much.
Probably because it is sinister.
Did you know that you cannot pay cash for a charge? That you must use a credit or debit card and that – in most cases – you can’t use one of those, either, unless you have also downloaded an app? In other words, that you can’t use a device unless you carry a “smart” phone with you and tether your bank account to the device that charges your device?
Why would the device-pushers do this?
And why isn’t this cashless-pushing being publicized? Probably because the device-pushers don’t want people to know what they’re being pushed into – which isn’t just batter powered devices. These being merely the vehicles for the pushing of something much more sinister.
