A group representing major electric vehicle and battery manufacturers on Friday urged President-elect Donald Trump not to kill tax credits for electric vehicle sales and production, citing the impact on key states that voted for the Republican.

At this point, many buyers are taking advantage of the credits at dealerships when they buy a car. In the past, they had to wait to claim it on their taxes the following year. Now, there’s the option of transferring their credit to the dealer and getting an instant rebate.

With a Republican-controlled Congress, there is 'definitely a path to repeal,' sources tell PCMag. But that could threaten jobs at EV manufacturing plants in red states.
