> Well yea, if you include the governments contribution they spent over 1 million per EV1 produced.

You're not actually reading the paragraph. It says that the government contributed an unspecified amount from a $1.25 Billion budget to GM. And that the contribution defrayed the stated costs by GM which means a portion of the $500 million they spend was grant money.

"EV1 program at slightly less than $500 million before marketing and sales costs, and over $1 billion in total"

adjust for inflation and that's well over 1 million / car.
