Did they get subsidies from the state for manufacturing there or just the same EV subsidies everyone collects? The EV credits are collected by companies who don't even manufacture in the US, let alone California.

Moving out of the Bay Area California makes a ton of sense for a manufacturer. I'm just happy they are keeping manufacturing in the US.



We are talking about charging stations and obviously Tesla is getting massive rebates. Free money to serve its own interest and not the electric car industry. It is not providing the service to all electric cars by avoiding standardization.

Again costs are socialized and profits privatized.


Is Tesla getting rebates at this point?

You say it's obvious, but I'd though EVs were subsidized at the time of launch and Tesla has burned through all of their subsidies.


PS. They are moving to Texas because it does not have state taxes and they produce cars in China for Chinese market.

Manufactures, Amazon, Walmart etc are all glad to be subsidized and avoid taxes in other regions.
