Maybe not outright outlaw, but they will be taxed out of existence. Effectively you will have the choice of paying 10k in pollution taxes or 5k for the functional brake pedal subscription, and this shit will become norm.

That’s possible but right now they’re pretty serious about banning ICE cars in certain states by 2050 or so.
