if i were at any policy-making position, i would EXPAND $7,500 EV credit to all possible forms of EV (any battery, ownership, leasing)-- maybe even increase it-- provided people trade-in their old vehicle (above 15 years) and get a ZEV to replace it [also last chapter of my thesis/paper submitted]

pretty cool from india: registering a vehicle above 15 years to cost 8X more. pollution from vehicles is kinda pareto -- 20% of old vehicles contribute to roughly 60-80% of air pollution (mostly NOx). need as many incentives to get them off the road. indianexpress.com/article/indi....
Registration renewal of vehicles over 15 years old to cost 8 times moreindianexpress.com According to the notification, these rules may be called the Central Motor Vehicles (23rd Amendment) Rules, 2021, and shall come into force with effect from April 1, 2022.
