Indeed. Here in the UK the cost of the car includes a £3k government subsidy, it was £5k but has dropped. If you have a company car, then you don't pay tax on it, compared to around 20% (CO2 dependent) for a full ICE car.
Us Brits like to commute, Covid withstanding, but the company car tax Benefit In Kind makes an EV mighty attractive as a company provided vehicle.
