Me too. Without the rebates and CA mandates, the automakers would never have produced any EVs.
When a technology has a monopolistic "lock" on the market, and benefits from all sorts of economies of scale and government incentives, there is no way for a new technology to break into the market. The rebates and mandates were necessary to allow change to even be possible.
