At this point, that type of fleet buying and delivery vehicles really make the most sense, and offer the most bang for the buck in terms of emissions reductions.

Why do we subsidize a wealthy person buying an EV who drives it 50km/day, when we have vehicles driving 8-10 hours a day? What reduces emissions more? I've never been a fan of the subsidy strategy for individual owners, and businesses don't seem to need much incentive, as they will probably see cost savings on vehicles like that.
