The Van limit in the original article of $54,000 is wrong. I looked at the PDF file and the Van limit is $64,000. That's makes more sense.I kind of like this. Everything save the union clause makes sense. The vehicle caps are much saner than the 40k and 80k numbers we saw previously. The only eyebrow raiser is the "vans under 54k". What do they have against vans, they are some of the most practical vehicles on the market.
Even with the union clause Tesla is **still** going to be the largest beneficiary because they have the largest capacity and market share in the US by a large margin. Mostly I think the dollar amount of the union clause makes the total incentive amount entirely too high. When we start getting $25,000 sedans, is the government really going to kick in $12,000?
I'm just wondering... is this going to be one of those silly things Tesla bypasses the way they bypassed New Mexico's ban on first party dealerships. Will we see a "Tesla Employees Union" with little or no voting rights or something similar?
It's on page 285 of 645 in this PDF file.
