US policymakers are rolling out big incentives for electric vehicle buyers who surrender a gas-powered model, advancing efforts to cancel carbon emissions.
I believe it. All the retrofits I’ve seen seem to be highly custom and/or for classic cars. If someone developed a standard procedure for converting Honda Civics for example, I thought there could be savings and it would make a decent impact since they’re so common.
I also think some people would be more receptive to an “upgrade” rather than a full on trade-in. People can get attached to their cars for reasons other than economics.
There are companies that specialize in doing the conversion to EV. So indeed the gov rebate could theoretically be to cover the cost of that. I think $6k would be sufficient budget.
