As a clsoing remark: Teslas would definitely not have sold for their 'true price' at the same scale. If Tesla was supposed to be a profitable business on its own, cars had to double or triple in price...
There's no question about whether subsidies helped #tesla along - they did, and they shouldn't have. But #elonmusk (along with an army of gifted engineers) was the one who put electric car feasibility in the #overton window.
