You leased an eGolf for $440 a month, the taxpayers are paying $220 a month of your payment, leaving you with $200 left.
Clearly that can't happen for anything but a very small fraction of the new car buyers or that tax incentive will go away in a big hurry.
Well it could. But once a significant amount of people have taken up the offer, there's no point to the incentive any more. It'll have done it's job so it'll probably be withdrawn.
Best to take advantage of the offer whilst it's there!
