In the US they would, unless they get an exception (which generally means they are not cars and cannot be used on roads, though there are other ways to get an exception: none would apply to anything mass market)
EU rules are even stricter than those across the pond. There are entire classes of products banned from the European market due to impact on health that the USA will happily poison their population with.

I don’t know what EU rules are.

The EU follows a “precautionary principle” rather than the US “risk benefit” approach.
This leads to the EU often banning things which pose little it no risk (e.g. GMO foods).
Their approach is not necessarily better and the things they ban are not necessarily “toxic”.

Eu rules are the same.
