> Do you vehemently oppose the US federal electric-vehicle tax credit of up to $7500 until the day you decide you'll buy a Tesla, when you'll switch to staunchly demanding that it be radically increased? (https://www.fueleconomy.gov/feg/taxevb.shtml)
It doesn't negate your point, but for Tesla specifically, no vehicles bought in 2020 or later are applicable for the federal tax credit at all (the page you linked acknowledges this). Raising the $7500 amount wouldn't benefit any Tesla buyers.
An entirely self-interested Tesla buyer would first want the per-manufacturer limit on the tax credit removed or increased. Then maybe have that credit amount increased.
