| I am quite certain that there are methods developed that turn atmospheric CO2 into gasoline but they are fairly energy intensive. Using nuclear sources as the power source for that process might make it more feasible and acceptable. It would also satisfy the current agenda of not increasing CO2 emissions because it would essentially be a continuous recycling loop of the existing atmospheric CO2.
As a side note that is also what plants and animals do naturally so the same energy could be used in a process relying much more on natural processes. But that would be a much less centralized system with many players so I doubt it would be chosen over a more easily controlled system with only a few select industrial players. The powers that be sure seem to want to replace natural processes with unnatural factory processes.
I don’t know if the entire lifecycle required to just use electricity for the propulsion would be more efficient than using traditional ICE propulsion though. But currently the storage tech for electricity is not sufficient for many applications so using ICE is much less disruptive.
