Tesla Model 3 is the latest electric vehicle (EV) from Tesla, and it’s revolutionizing the way we think about transportation. With its sleek design, powerful performance, and long-range battery, the Model 3 is quickly becoming the go-to choice for eco-conscious drivers. But what about incentives to get people to switch from gas to electric?
A recent study conducted by Brad Greenwood, professor of information systems and operations management at George Mason University’s School of Business, found that EV subsidies rolled out in China – similar to the US’s new $7,500 EV tax credit – incentivized people to buy EVs as second vehicles, but they kept buying and driving gas cars as well.
Dr. Greenwood’s research suggests that in order to get people to fully switch from gas to electric, subsidies need to be more effective. He found that the impact of the subsidy is strongest in cities with poor air quality, but consumers don’t react more when prices for operating a traditional vehicle are higher. He believes that mandating abandonment of a gas car when purchasing an EV could be key to increasing the efficacy of subsidies.
