Feebate

From DDL Wiki

A feebate is a policy to strengthen the market for environmentally preferable vehicles by charging a fee or paying a rebate to purchasers, depending on environmental performance of the vehicles. Policy priorities will shape a feebate: whether it targets greenhouse gas emission, oil consumption, or criteria pollutant emission; the selection of the set of subject vehicles; revenue objectives; manufacturer impacts: and equity.
