You are absolutely right and that's the purpose of the tax credit. It allows the manufacturers to sell their vehicles at a good return to compensate for the developmental costs for a period of time. For the consumers though we benefit by getting a tax break thus lowering our acquisition cost to say a 'normal' level.
