California Considers Excluding Tesla from EV Rebates Amid Federal Tax Credit Uncertainty

California Governor Gavin Newsom has proposed an EV rebate program that may exclude Tesla, aiming to support smaller EV manufacturers. This move comes as a response to potential federal rollbacks on green subsidies by President-elect Donald Trump. Elon Musk criticized the proposal, highlighting Tesla's significant presence in California. Despite Tesla's strong sales in the state, its market share has declined, possibly due to Musk's political stances. Tesla's stock fell 4% following the news, though it has risen 40% since Trump's re-election.

The study warns that the way this money is distributed across the state would have an impact on the emissions in different locations.
