which was passed to me in the form of a lower lease price. In fact, the monthly lease payment was lower on the PHEV than on the equivalent hybrid, because of the tax credit (I checked this specifically when I was shopping around).

On a purchase, the Tucson doesn’t get the tax credit yet, although it does on the lease because of the way the stupid law was written. But I understand that it will qualify later this year when Hyundai’s new plant opens in Georgia.
