Summary: The bill would ban the importation, manufacture, and sale of connected vehicles—cars with internet and wireless communication capabilities—and their related software and hardware if they are associated with China, Russia, Iran, or North Korea. It expands existing restrictions to include Iran and North Korea, specifically addresses artificial intelligence components, and requires the Commerce Department to enforce the ban through civil penalties while publishing a list of authorized exceptions by January 2027.
