Recent Tweet: Tesla on the Ropes in Washington State, Other EV's at Risk Too! http://bit.ly/1feHLk4 for full details - or at least the personal experience of one EV Owner!
“The cross hairs are not just being targeted on the industry-disrupting Tesla, though. The bills also target new EV sales from all manufacturers. If passed in their current forms, HB 2524 and SB 6272 would also require any manufacturer wanting to release a new EV model in the state to equip ALL of its dealers within the state with specific diagnostic and servicing equipment needed to service the new vehicle.
This would effectively stop any further EV models from being released in Washington State because the high investment costs needed to prepare dealerships to sell and service EV’s can only be done on region-by-region basis until there is critical mass adoption for EV’s to bring the associated costs down.”
I remain,
