The US market has very strong incentives for electric cars (and some other clean tech) at the moment, to the point that Europeans have complained it's unfair subsidy. Makes sense to use those incentives while they last.

It isn't cost cutting in the traditional sense because it is the same production line and the same employees. They're just not having to reconfigure the production line to RHD, then reconfigure it back to normal.
