At this point they should be focusing on infrastructure not sales. It’s charging anxiety that is holding back a lot of buyers.
Instead of purchase rebates I’d rather see rebates for Level 2 home charger installations and a publicly owned national DCFC network created.

When the government put in a 5k incentive some years ago, they credited it with a 20% increase in EV sales. Sounds not too bad, right? But what that means, is they gave out 120 incentives to sell an extra 20 cars, or: 30k per EV car. The cost of that in $/CO2 works out worse than carbon capture.
