@arstechnica how about not gutting the EV tax rebates... or does Tesla still think that policies which hurt the EV market as a whole help them by weakening their competition? because that was always a cynical and unenlightened argument

@matthewmaybe that's partially the case:.as far as I remember, but keep in mind that I live on the other side of the Atlantic pond, the subsidies (tax cuts, etc.) to boost EV in the USA are time limited. As the first mover, Tesla doesn't qualify anymore. Whereas competitor which are catching up now do qualify. So yes, it would hurt the competitors more.
