There have been a few cases around the world in which incentives changed radically both up and down. I recall seeing data (I forgot where) that Georgia USA has EV sales drop radically when incentives were eliminated. Logically Tesla should be less affected than are other manufacturers, but still significantly. The Ontario incentives have been changed to be value-based IIRC, so tesla will have much lower incentives than will less spectacular (i.e. expensive) vehicles. There are also a few jurisdictions which are adopting means tests.i...
I can see at least one set of data that reflects the value of EV incentives, or more specifically what happens if the government decides to reduce/eliminate them.

yeah here in British Columbia the provincial government recently eliminated the $5k rebate completely on EV purchases for any EV costing more than C$77k (suspciously targeted at Tesla, presumably since Tesla buyers must be "rich").There have been a few cases around the world in which incentives changed radically both up and down.

Hey Troy,
Not speaking for @Troy or his analysis, but if you do publish, you may want to consider some of the caveats posts by @JonMc in this thread.Hey Troy,
I write for Teslarati (& own a Tesla) and wondered if I can source these numbers and source them to you?

Speaking of tire rotations, why do you have to go the Tesla SC for that? Or even tire replacement?
@Grant Gerke,
You can use the data as you wish but I don't recommend comparing countries to each other because in some countries Tesla might have larger service centers, more technicians per service center or more shifts.
◘ For example, this kind of comparison is not recommended:
At the end of Q2 2016, both France and the UK had 4 service centers but France had 1,468 Teslas on the road, vs 3,451 in the UK.
◘ However, this comparison makes more sense:
At the end of Q1 2016, Tesla had 61 service centers and 71,808 vehicles in the US. After Q2 2016, it was 61 service centers and 80,930 Teslas. As of today, on 19th September 2016, Tesla still has 61 service centers in the US but the number of Teslas has increased to 90,913.
If @JonMc or somebody else from Tesla is reading this, I recommend publishing wait times for each service center. This has 3 advantages:
1. It would allow people to select the least crowded service center near them.
2. When news blogs publish articles about this, the examples they mention might be worse than the average experience.
3. People are curious about this subject but without more data, there will be lots of speculative articles.
Notes:
1. Tesla sales in California are published by CNCDA.org.
2. A list of data sources for Tesla Europe registrations can be found HERE. The data collected from those sources is available HERE.
3. Tesla publishes global total sales after each quarter in shareholder letters but normally they don't break it down by region, except THIS shareholder letter which included 2014 and 2015 Tesla USA sales.
4. Tesla's quarterly sales by region can be found HERE. It includes many estimates.
5. I recently added wait times that I could find in the forum. For example, in California section, under some quarters it says 55, 45, 48, 45, 32 days. These are wait times people have mentioned in various forum topics. You can click on these number to open the data source. These wait times are for non-critical issues that don't prevent driving the vehicle.
Let me know if you have any questions. You can also send me a pm if you prefer. I also don't mind others using this data or the data in my other topic HERE about Superchargers.
