Rubin and St-Louis say that considering the high costs of fuel-efficient electric, plug-in hybrid electric, and fuel cell vehicles, whose sticker prices start at around $20,000, it was not surprising to find that 83% of rebate recipients in the period studied reported yearly incomes of more than $100,000. —Rubin and St-Louis (2016).

Furthermore, the batteries in a PHEV are generally smaller than those in any other electric vehicle constructed today and the battery savings in the PHEV from a pure BEV can easily make up for the cost of the small liquid-fueled engine, resulting in a lower-cost production vehicle for mass distribution.

A large component of the Administration’s rationale for the change hinges on its analysis of the cost of clean technology, the resultant savings to motorists, and an associated reduction in injuries and fatalities due to more motorists presumably buying newer, safer cars because the cost would be less.
