I'm in New Zealand and we've had similar changes. Tax credits removed: which is probably an environmental benefit because a credit on vehicle purchase is not aligned with carbon reduction (e.g. low usage second car). Plus the credits were often regressive taxation (new car buyers are wealthy, and the trickle down is too far away to be carbon friendly). Taxation was added per km on NZ for EVs, so that roads are funded by EVs too (roads were mostly funded by petrol/diesel taxes). Article said "which they claim is to fund road repairs traditionally supported by gas taxes". NZ roads are mostly funded by very expensive petrol/diesel taxes. Political aside: I have been wondering what Musk's goal was in taking on the poisoned job with doge: Trump hasn't been helping Musk and I can't see why he would.
