You guys got it all wrong. This is about timing. How else are they going

What they plan to charge EV drivers is out of line with the amount paid by
ICEV drivers for a similar amount of driving. It suggests that the tax is
intended as much to discourage EV uptake as to raise revenue.
And as Consumer Reports pointed out, "Fixed fees also shift the financial
burden away from commercially driven vehicles, such as delivery vans,
robotaxis, and rideshares, which can drive up to 10 times as many miles as a
personal vehicle,"
