The quoted article says $7500 credit still remains without 200k cap for everyone, but US built gets extra $2500, and union built(e.g. Ford/GM?) gets 2nd extra $2500.

The estimated cost is almost $32B, which may be used to get the basic R&D done (and production ramped) for carbon/solid-state/Al-ion/which-ever tech that can do 60x faster charge and 3x denser .... just saying.
