I don't have an issue with them being supposed "rich people lanes" if it's how companies gradually bring EVs to market and eventually to lower price points.

LA already has "rich people lanes".[1] There are paid toll transponders that let cars drive in the express lane. Price is about $1/mile.

Seattle also has these. Dynamic pricing based on congestion charges between 50c and $7.50. After that price it's HOV only.
