So, is it just me, or does the IRS plug-in hybrid tax credit make about as much sense as a screen door on a submarine? I tried deciphering there fine print, and I'm pretty sure I need a secret decoder ring and a law degree. Between battery sizes, phase-outs, made-in-where, and spreadsheet acrobatics, I’m starting to believe the government’s secretly running an escape room for EV buyers.
Has anyone actually received this elusive tax credit for their PHEV, or is it just an urban legend whispered about at dealership water coolers? Bonus points if anyone has cracked the magic formula for “which cars actually qualify this week.”
