This was in the news. I haven't contacted the dealer yet but it looks like $2210 pay down and $125 a month. My simple math says about $185 a month.

This excludes any dealer discounts. But may exclude some other fees. I have never leased so no clue.

Great as a third car. Note that this model didn't get very good reviews - hence it being priced accordingly.

Correct.
Toyota built this as a compliance car to fill a gap in the lineup and has zero focus on it or care. If anything, it is the 'look we built an EV, it sucks!'. The first production run had WHEELS FALLING OFF. They recalled every single one! The car is slow and just utterly wild in it's idiocy.

We test drove the badge engineered Subaru version - the Solterra. Same car, different logo.
The list of infuriating choices piled fast. Want to move the driver's seat? BEEPS. CONSTANT BEEPS.
Want to back up? It beeps on the inside and inside only. Who are they warning?! Me? I"M DRIVING THE CAR.
The performance is just bad. It has a quick little bit of torque and then falls on it's face.
Did I mention the range sucks and that the car does not support fast charging so you literally cannot roadtrip it without hour-long-stops?
All in all, it just felt like Toyota was completely uninterested in building it as it is lower margin than gas/hybrid.

Then you have the ioniq 5. Hyundai's focus is straight up on on beating the Tesla Model Y. They are serious and in it. The car is shockingly better looking in person than the BZ4X. The interior feels like tomorrow and has innovative ideas, way more range, way better software, etc.
Korea is currently having the same moment that Japan had in the 90s, Hyundai should be taken seriously, esp in the EV space.
Texas sucks for leases. Have to pay taxes on full amount.

TX offer is $4k down $219 a month plus TTL
This price is only for 2023 which is all sold out

I got a 2024 XLE FWD with tech pkg, mud guard, door guard, etc for 250/month with taxes, TTL, fees in MD for 36 months. Brother got XLE AWD for 252/month OTD in PA for 36 months.

I am also moving to MD but heard you have to pay sales taxes on the entire car price upfront not lease payment. Is that true?

If so I would just try to find one in MA where I am now.

Quote from JustWrong :
Really depending on the dealership. You can use the Toyota Inventory website to find a dealership that offers lower than MSRP within up to 500 miles from your zip code. The amount listed on Toyota website is based on TSRP but not dealer advertised price. The dealer advertised price will include any of the pre-installed accessories or packages as well as any dealer installed accessories, which means the price would be higher than what is listed on Toyota website.

I was able to talk to several dealerships to get as much as $4000 off MSRP with no dealer installed accessories or junk fees for the XLE. Dealership in the urban area mostly won't go beyond $3000 off TSRP but suburban area ones would go lower. I have not encountered any dealership trying to sell this car with mark-up yet, mostly with 1-2k off TSRP on Toyota's inventory website.

Good advice. I will try to do so. I thought that the lower they will go is the advertised one on the toyota website but maybe I will try to go lower.

Good thing EVs have 100s of miles of range. When is the last time you entered a desolate stretch of hwy in the desert with 2 gallons left in the tank?

Never, but I have driven in deserts where you can drive over 300 miles until the next place you could charge an electric vehicle. A place with a real charger, not a wall plug.

Toyota sold 1890 total in the US in Q1. Around 600 per month in 50 States. About 12 in each state.

With Tesla prices coming down, i was thinking of getting a Model Y. Not anymore! Read this - what an eye- opener.

Correct and agree…

Tesla churning out 2 million vehicles a year because of this issue so folks can replace.
Good point. Thank you.

I got mine fully loaded 2024 Limited trim ($52k MSRP) with deep dealer discount before this post. I didn't even realize it is zero APR so ended up putting slightly larger down payment.

As long as you are willing to go to a dealership further away from your home, you should be able to negotiate the discount bigger than what is listed on Toyota website. I ended up driving 200 miles for the car. They didn't even have 50% charged on the car so I ended up charging multiple times at the free EVgo station to get home.

Quote from burntorangehorn :
1. EVs don't destroy the environment. They're an imperfect emerging tech that is rapidly enabling reduction of environmental impact.
2. ICEs have a far higher chance of catching fire than BEVs. Hybrids are worse than either.
1. Actually EVs have a much larger carbon footprint than IC cars because of the carbon created in the manufacturing of the lithium batteries. Just because those batteries are all made in China does not mean that all of that "evil carbon " does not exist in the atmosphere. Before an EV even leaves the showroom it has already created as much carbon as an IC car will create in the next 6 to 10 years (depending on the model). Then the EV will use electricity as fuel which is generated by burning carbon so that gap will take longer to close. The much heavier weight of EVs then requires significantly more friction against the brake pads to slow or stop them which then spews out larger quantities of micro pollutants into the atmosphere then ICs.
2. I have not seen any data to support your point 2 and I don't know how such data would be calculated since EVs make up only about 3% of the vehicles in the US but even assuming that statement were true, the issue is what happens when EVs catch fire because most local fire departments have no equipment to rapidly extinguish EV fires so they burn at high temperatures for extended periods of time and those fires can therefore damage nearby buildings, cars (as Pres Joe' s entourage found out in Nantucket) and worse yet would be more likely to kill any occupants. In fact several EV manufacturers warn you not to put your EV in a garage for this very reason.
3. EVs put an untenable strain on the electrical grid that is already taxed beyond capacity in many areas (eg California) and EVs are only 3% of vehicles . What happens to the grid when EVs are required by law to be 100% of the cars sold? Hint: the answer is "disaster" !

Probably not a place EV drivers would go. Problem solved.

These are like the "best of EV myths" you're perpetuating. So bad even the EPA had to put up a website.

Some people will cling to any contorted, short-sighted rationale they can find to justify their reactionary and contrarian culture-war posture.
