The $7,500 is only good on the first 200,000 electric vehicles produced so it was gone for Tesla some time in 2018 anyway.
Insert yawn here.
Try caffeine.... Problem is that the possibility of ending subsidies effects most all other EV manufacturers and their production plans and stock prices as well - this puts at least a temporary (though potential) cloud over the entire industry and its go to investment sector which Tesla is a part of...Tesla (if beyond the 200k mfg limit?) will undoubtedly seek expanded subsidy relief in its home state of CA....
I have no illusions that EV popularity will wane anytime soon, but this popular political trend does not suggest that it is the best POV transportation solution, nor that somehow net pollution will even be reduced (grid problems not withstanding...)...Quite conspicuously, any responsible studies to this particular question have yet to be dissiminated for a larger and open review.... Reasonable minds (policy makers, et al) should be interested in (and intellectually open to) attaining this type of comprehensive evaluation (empiricism) before acting out on assumed or flawed notions (scientism)..
Unfortunately, this type of inqusitive curiosity now seems to be lacking (DOA) - “**** the torpedos”!
