To laboriously explain it for you since you didn't manage to understand, regular cars have high maintenance costs. Governments change tax on economic activity, such as repairs and maintenance. Governments like that tax. Because electric cars won't need maintenance, that repairs and maintenance industry goes the way of farrier work. So governments won't be getting that tax revenue.

You obviously understand that good electric cars don't need maintenance. But your check list stuck-brain lacking of thinking means you have trouble understanding what people write.

I'm chuckling here..

Your going to have to come up with another tax scheme.

Reality

We won't need your massively inefficient, dirty polluting ff's.

Pollution at every step of the way for them.

Some of us are already doing cheaper more productive, sustainable and clean things with our time.

That is the revolution that is accelerating at this moment.
