Has anyone looked into the various subsidies around the world? It seems that Tesla are smart enough to design around various regulations and taxes. SUVs became a thing in part because of differential tax treatment, and I've heard in the UK that company cars and business vehicles are heavily slanted towards electrification (both hybrid and full EV) I can see things changing faster than people would think based on the retail prices.

An interesting follow up would be investigating how much those subsidies cost or earn for the governments that provide them e.g. if you can provide all your electricity from homegrown hydro electricity rather than imported gasoline, then how much money does it save you to have an EV on the road. Is all that value being passed onto EV users?
