// LONG - New EV Incentive in CA Could Result in Half-Priced Model 3 - http://www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-ev-rebate-status-20170901-story.html - Proposed Legislation in CA could increase EV rebates to 10K or more - Bill AB-1184 proposed by Assembly Member Ting in Feb of 2017 - Vote scheduled for Sept 15th, 2017 "The bill directs the state Air Resources Board to devise a formula for car rebates. A single rebate amount would be set that would account for the difference in price between a compact electric car and a traditionally powered compact car, according to the bill. Sponsor Phil Ting (D-San Francisco) has suggested a Chevy Bolt EV could be compared against the best-selling compact in California, which right now is the Honda Civic. That could mean a rebate of $8,000 to $10,000 or more. Ting told The Times last week that a lid could be put on the sticker price of a qualifying car, perhaps $50,000.” - LA Times Bill Text (m) Incentives for electric zero-emission vehicles will further the following goals: (1) One million zero-emission vehicles by 2022 and establishing a self-sustaining market, as stated in the Charge Ahead California Initiative (Chapter 8.5 (commencing with Section 44258) of Part 5 of Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code). (2) Governor Brown’s target of 1.5 million zero-emission vehicles by 2025. (3) Governor Brown’s recent public statements to set a further ambitious target of 5 million zero-emission vehicles by 2030, to be on track to achieve an 80 percent reduction of greenhouse gas emissions in the state by 2050.
