Car manufacturers can't make enough EVs to keep up with demand, so you might not be talking to the right people.

Unsold electric cars are piling up on dealer lots

Having tried to buy one recently I think the discrepancy is that dealers wasted their allotments on high-trim EVs expecting people to be willing to pay 15-20k premiums just to drive an EV. If you want a lower trim model you are going to be waiting weeks to months for it to arrive.
