More than 60 environmental, business, and housing groups are asking Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey, a Democrat, not to delay the state’s commitment to getting more electric vehicles on the road, despite pressure from automakers to do so.

“Massachusetts should not be asked to compromise its policy leadership or economic competitiveness to accommodate private automakers who would prefer to build less efficient, less technologically advanced cars,” wrote Kat Burnham, senior principal at industry association Advanced Energy United, and Jordan Stutt, Northeast senior director for clean transportation advocacy group Calstart, in a letter last week to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection.
