EVs require automakers to design new manufacturing processes and build plants to make both EVs and their batteries. For instance, automakers are demanding these suppliers absorb more cost cuts because automakers are finding EVs so expensive to build. Even for the large auto suppliers, the transition to EVs will not be an easy road.
