How the Drive Clean Rebate program works.

I think that idea won’t work, but you can read the whole thing here. Go to Dealer page and read the terms of the form you (she!) must sign; must be registered for 3 years in NYS after purchase. Polestar 1 or 2 are not yet listed so I hope Polestar has started the process with NYS cause I’d like to get the rebate, as I am a full-time resident. I just realized though that I need to do a 3-yr lease to qualify, not the 2-yr I planned, on the basis of the fast-changing EV environment. Don’t want to be holding a 250-mi car when the 400-milers will be here in 3 years... or the Precept is available...🤩
The annoying thing was that Cuomo had blessed the program the year I bought my Volt, but they dicked around setting the program up for 2 years and never made it retroactive. This time, I want my cut!
