Slow Sales of Electric Vehicles Pose Challenges for Government and Car Companies

The biggest economic push for electric vehicles appears to be to move them out of dealer inventory lots despite government subsidy perks.

Part of that money was used to help purchase a shuttered General Motors plant in Biden’s home state of Delaware where it was predicted that one day it would employ 2,000 workers. A123, in turn, suffered a big setback when Fisker decreased orders and pink-sheeted 125 employees after receiving $249.1 million from the federal government plus $141 million in State of Michigan tax credits and subsidies under then-Gov. Jennifer Granholm who now heads the U.S. Department of Energy.

Big problems arose after her advance team realized that there wouldn’t be enough fast-charge stations for the caravan at a planned stop in Grovetown, a suburb of Augusta, Georgia, with one broken and the three others typically occupied, prompting a DOE staffer to reserve a spot by blocking it with a gasoline vehicle.
