Which ones specifically? The only two I know of are: - The low/zero emission car rebate that Toyota and every other manufacturer has used. - The clean energy manufacturing tax write off that applies to over a hundred other companies.

I don't think California has given Elon any significant subsidies. When Tesla asked states to compete on the Gigafactory, California lost to Nevada.

Write offs isn't the right word here. It's a partial tax offset for purchasing manufacturing equipment. The tax itself is already high, so the partial exemptions on that tax isn't some give away.
