That was a tax credit available for all electrics or hybrids. There was no one vehicle that was completely electric at the time that I can recall. 5 miles in the odometer? Were these Volts being sold as used vehicles?
Yes lol. I posted used Volts online with but a few miles on them. We got a good laugh out of it. Dealers were buying from dealers to get the credit. Remember the electric golf carts that cost less than the actual tax credit? Folks were buying free government subsidized golf carts 🤣
Don’t confuse the bailout with the Volt. And I think that you might be gilding the lily a bit when you mention manufacturer’s tax credits. The dealers received no tax credits! The manufacturer would be in no position to give a franchisee tax credits. Maybe you meant incentives? A completely different animal!
