Lawmakers push to require AM radio in new cars
Original: Lawmakers look to require AM radio in new cars despite automakers' pushback
US lawmakers are moving to mandate that new vehicles include AM radio, despite opposition from automakers who argue it is outdated technology and want to drop it from electric vehicles. Supporters say AM radio remains a critical channel for emergency alerts, especially in rural areas, and warn that removing it could cut off drivers during disasters.
Why now: Automakers are phasing AM radio out of new models, prompting a legislative response that is drawing attention from both safety advocates and the auto industry.
