Now add a $ 10,000 battery disposal ecological impact fee to it.
And $ 5000 battery fire insurance policy requirement.
In most states, you pay a core charge (refundable) when you buy a new starter battery for your car and there is also a federal tax on tires. I imagine there might eventually be a fee or tax on EV batteries when they’re no longer usable and need to be disposed of. They have valuable metals in them, but are not very easy to extract.
