Policymakers around the world have recognized that electric vehicles as a seminal component of environmental and national security policies. To encourage adoption of this cutting-edge technology governing bodies provide a variety of incentives. Roadster owners around the world enjoy the perks of free parking and unrestricted use of high-occupancy vehicle lanes while conventional vehicles idle in traffic or circle to find parking spots. The United States government offers a $7,500 tax credit for purchasing a Tesla and many other financial incentives exist in other countries around the world.
Fueling with electricity instead of petroleum is a sound financial decision. Depending on utility rates, the Tesla Roadster costs as little as $5 to charge, equivalent to $0.02 per mile. Alternatively, a gasoline-powered car rated to 20 mpg costs about $0.15 per mile.
