      Those incentives are mainly used on ICE, aka., hybrids. Tesla doesn't need them and Elon is against on principle, as he should be. Such also drives essentially all the backlash against EVs.
      Tesla is competing very well against Chinese options *in China,* they'll compete even better in N. America even without tariffs. SOME tariffs are needed just to cancel out CCP subsidies. Mr. T is of course overstating his intentions as a bargaining chip.

    Elon Musk is 'polarizing', and your video is about how he is advancing.
    One of the 'hot' topics in the US is the "woke" culture.
    That in itself is 'polarizing' and as the old adage goes: Fight fire with fire.
    True- there are many more "acceptable" people who may be a better 'fit' as a president or CEO, however in a topsy/turvey world, a bitch-slap or spanking may be an option if no one else is willing to 'save our planet'.
    Like the lyrics of a Christian Contemporary artist many years ago:
    We've paved the forest, killed the streams
    Burned the bridges to our dreams
    The earth is bursting at the seams
    And in pain of childbirth screams
    As it gives life to what seems
    To either be an age that gleams
    Or simply lays there dying
    If this goes on will life survive, how can it
    Out of the great, oh who will save our planet

    The situation is enormously complicated. First, an aside. This channel has consistently ridiculed Trump, apparently reflecting the typical Australian attitude. You guys just don't understand the frustrations that the working people face in the U.S., the arrogance of the left wing elite, and how only Trump is addressing their concerns. This is why he's winning. Now regarding Mexico: we have this little problem of illegal immigration and narcotics gangs invading our cities, a couple hundred thousand fentanyl deaths every year, law and order crumbling, unknown numbers of criminals, trafficked minors, etc. flooding the cities. And that's why he's threatening to tariff everything from Mexico, including cars.

    If he dont lower the price of these cars, he just may loose cause I'm still seeing AWD long range is 5k-10k more than an ice car and hes about to remove 7.5k tax incentive this year!

      The 5k-10k difference in price is made up in fuel savings every month not purchasing gas.
      The 7.5k tax credit is still available this year.
      With the EV:
      No weekly gas station trips.
      No oil and filter changes.
      No brake pad or rotor replacements for the life of the vehicle. No brake dust on the wheels.
      No transmission or fluid replacements.
      No catalytic converter thefts or muffler or exhaust damage.
      Next to no maintenance and hundreds of less parts.
      Warm up the vehicle in the garage with the garage door closed.

      Trump proposed Tariffs may mess up your plan. Presently the ONLY US automaker that sits in the top 10 list of most US built car brands is Tesla. In 2023 they held the top 4 spots. The next US automaker to appear on the list is Chevy with the Corvette and the very popular Ford F150 appeared at 66th!

      .... which legislative bill has this...mandate you speak of? Oh, that because there is not mandate. There is an aspirational GOAL set by Biden to reach 50% of car sales to be EV in the near future, but it's not mandatory...or as you like to say...mandated. Please just stop will you. That GOAL will most likely change as most GOALS typically do.

    When Tesla's are actually bigger, better and more affordable, I'll be the first to buy one. But any new car, especially electric, are just ruinously expensive. I like motorbikes like the Maeving, I think they have a big future.
