Or even US government? (by removing incentives)

[bigstrat2003]

Removing incentives is not "taxing EVs", it's leveling the playing field. If EVs can't compete without the competition being tilted in their favor, they aren't up to scratch yet.

If EV costs more you pay more sales tax / gst / vat.

Also most places now tax EV registration with extra fee or per mile so you add fair share towards roads making hybrid TCO lower.
