I assume the “punitive tax” is the registration fee for EVs. Do people really not by an EV that will save them $1000 on fuel per year because they don’t want to pay the State government a $100 registration fee?

Yes, Wisconsin EV sales fell to single digit monthly sales after the fee passed.
Other states without EV incentives have had the EV market collapse after adding fees as well.
Can tell me it shouldn’t be that way but that’s how it’s been working by the numbers.
Further my Insight uses about $150-$180 per year of fuel
My Plug in uses $150-$180 a year of “fuel” as well
A $100 annual fee is equal to 40% of my driving expenses
(considering my maintenance 5 years in is nearly zero on both)
