... weren't already enough reasons to consider the Chevrolet Volt when it drops in 2010, Congress has added even more sweetener to the prospect of picking one up in the form of a $7,500 tax break passed as part of last week's bailout package.

Bailout To Make Chevy Volt $7500 Cheaper

Disappointingly, the Aptera Typ-1e, with its 10 kWh battery, is not technically an automobile (it’s only got 3 wheels, after all) and therefore does not get any tax breaks at all, which could put the $30,000ish space fighter on par with the $40,000ish - $7500 Volt. It’s gonna be an interesting next few years in the hybrid electric car market, that’s for sure… Maybe I’ll win the lottery and be able to get a piece of it myself.
