How does Tesla lose money on the rebate?
1 comments

They don’t. It’s that they get to charge less for their cars than would a competitor.
Those competitors can sell cars with the same rebate as Tesla though.
Yes, assuming Tesla doesn’t successfully lobby to change the law, which I expect them to do.
They get to charge more, you mean. They have had to steadily lower their prices as the rebate phased out.
