My comment was less about the current grant, and more like what they should’ve done in my opinion.
Battery chemistry in that regard means nothing. With the obvious caveat that even if Tesla packs are different, the ID3 doesn’t lose much range over 100k miles either.
Point was, boost the 2nd hand market, don’t flood it with even more cheap EVs from leasing companies. It just drives up the prices.
