California Offers Low Income Residents $27,000 to Buy EVs if They Can Figure out How to Apply
Jalopnik ^ | 2/28/2023 | Lawrence Hodge

The good news is that the market share of EVs in California rose 17 percent in 2022. Looking past those glowing numbers, however, hides an unfortunate reality some may not want to talk about: EVs are still too expensive, and a lot of buyers in the state can’t afford housing, let alone an electric car. The good news is that there’s help; The Sacramento Bee reports The Golden State will give low-income residents up to $27,000 for help purchasing an EV.

The Sacramento Bee is turning into the Babylon Bee.

Nothing says ghetto bling like an electric vehicle!

California has the third world thing nailed.

Offer lots of free stuff but make the bureaucracy and paperwork so convoluted that it is impossible to meet all the requirements.

Ultimately third world folks figure out the rules—bribe somebody to get what you want.

With a title like this, I was expecting to see Babylon Bee as the source.

It's true, reality can be stranger than fiction.

Tomorrow's headline: EV makers raise their prices by $27K.

That's always the end result of government "help".

Free cars for the poor, free schooling for illegals, free automatic weapons for foreign nations, free reparations for mi orities, free this that and the other thing too for nations that hate us, free $$ for crap arts exhibits and programs, free money overseas for nations to push lgbtq, free money for deadbeats who game the system, free housing for illegals, etc etc etc

But, no money left for seniors disabled and veterans.

What a joke!

What are they going to do when California has one of its many rolling blackouts?

During California’s last heatwave a few months ago I was getting alerts from my city every few hours NOT to plug in EVs b/c the electrical grid was overloaded.

Good luck with that!

Another way to get you to pay for the other people's vehicles.

I'm sure Illegals will be included, along with the inner-city tribal parasites (to buy their electric-powered Escalades).

Has anyone read through the IRS instructions on qualify for this, or any energy “credit”?
It’s maddening. New window max credit is $500

I see an opportunity to buy lots of barely used, very low milage EVs for $25k under sales price.

Cash is king in the world of bling.

The poor need to hire skilled tax professionals so they can qualify for the tax credits.

Bwahahahahahahaha.
