It’s the best time to buy an EV with the vehicles selling more cheaply than when the rebate scheme was in place, a motoring editor says.

So all those millions of dollars went into a rebate scheme that actually pushed electric vehicle prices up to take account of the subsidy. Remove the subsidy, and the price falls to meets demand.
