How much of this can be explained by regulations by CA and other states that require (or strongly incentivize) manufacturers to have electric models?

I recall reading that Fiat loses $10k in every electric Fiat they sell, but that they do so to appease CA regulators.



Some SoCal dealers have offered Fiat 500e electrics on lease for $99/month inclusive (dealer/mfr keeps the incentives).


Curious why this comment would be downvoted — if you have a response, or evidence in support/against what I mentioned, feel free to share. We don't downvote whenever we disagree; this is used to indicate that someone is not productively adding to the conversation.
