Hello, I hope you're well.

Tesla is offering certain customers a $7,500 discount and 10,000 Supercharger credits if they take delivery of a Model 3 or Model Y by 12/31/2022. Check your text message; here is an example.

Yesterday, I posted about how the Model 3 RWD and Model Y will qualify for the full Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) $7,500 if you take delivery in January or February 2023 (of course, if Tesla runs promotions or drop prices in early 2023, there could be better savings then). This is better in several major ways:
  • Lower sales tax because this is a discount, not a tax credit
  • You get the discount immediately, instead of having to wait until 2024 when you file taxes for 2023
  • You get 10,000 Supercharger credits, which is valued at between $500 and $900
  • If you're financing, you don't have to pay interest on the $7,500
  • (For some people) If you didn't qualify for the tax credit due to being over the income limit, you don't have to worry about that at all
  • 12/29/2022 UPDATE: IRS published its list [irs.gov], and some vehicles will not qualify for the tax credit that starts in 2023; of note, Model Y 5-Seat does not qualify because it passes the $55,000 limit, whereas the Model Y 7-Seat does qualify because it is below the $80,000 limit.
  • 01/04/2022 UPDATE: The 10,000 Supercharger miles (which is actually 4,000 kWH) have been added to the Tesla App. Check Settings > Loot Box.
Author's Note: This is a deal thread, not a political thread or a thread for people who dislike Tesla. Please refrain from going off topic or thumbing down this thread. You have every right to hate Tesla and its CEO, but please don't thumb down a thread related to Tesla simply because of that. Slickdeals is a deal-hunting forum above all else, and I'd greatly appreciate it if we treat threads in Hot Deals as deal threads and nothing else. Thank you.

I hope this helps,
Tofu Vic

Until a few months ago these crazy libs were all for the environment and that was their #1 life focus.

All of a sudden everyone is a politically motivated anti-EV activist that cares more about Twitter employees than the environment or anything else really.

I wonder how many of these posts are oil company funded bots

If you go back on SD, these anti Tesla oil people have spent hours a day trying to destroy Tesla. Each day they delay the EV adoption equals billions of dollars of profit and power.

What they don't get is that it's obvious now what they're trying to do and it's too late to stop the revolution.

Anyone with a brain has been selling any stock. The more the fed makes it clear they want to slow the economy, the more clear it is that its not time to buy yet.

Tesla has been doing these sales at the end of year and end of quarter sometimes for many years. This is not anything new. And there are plenty of people selling their Tesla because it has actually appreciated in price. If you're smart, you know prices are going to keep going down so it's smart to sell right now

You can miss my point. The people that need to understand what I'm trying to say will get it

(this whole liberal thing is a made up religion. They flip flop their constituents based on what's most profitable)

Tesla will add radar back in Jan next year. So I think next year model will have 2 systems: camera and radar. https://www.kbb.com/car-news/tesl...t-lost-it/

Quote from AndrewinMD :
I always love when companies have these fire sales and loss leaders to boost their sales revenue at the end of a quarter to reduce impact on the share price from poor numbers. Tesla's stock has been getting hammered lately, and this seems like an attempt to raise the year-end revenue to compensate.

Will the Tesla 3 qualify for the new $7500 rebate starting on 1 Jan?
Model 3 LR and P with current pricing NO. I bet they remove feature to get the price under cap then give the option to purchase afterwards with software update

It would be something if they kept these incentives past Jan 1 and then couple them with the rebate since battery sourcing is delayed until march. That would drive sales through the roof.

It's great until you roadtrip a non-Tesla, when you have to rely on Electrify America. Although I never tried any Tesla so I can't really speak of it, but experiencing a roadtrip back in November 2022 on my VW ID.4, charging was a pain going from NorCal to SoCal when half the chargers at the station is broken and/or long queues in busy spots.

I'm looking to go back to hybrid/ICE cars in the near future... But Tesla $7,500 discount caught my attention, though I still doubt I'll buy one.
Fair, can't speak to roadtrips, wife and I checked for the last 12 years we haven't taken a roadtrip longer then 100 miles so wasnt a consideration. For what it's worth havent had a problem with Electrify America at the local stations...

This is even better deal than getting $7500 tax credit next year since it's coming off the price of the car (less cash outlay). Must resist. Need to wait for the Cybertruck.

Model 3 AWD is ~350 mile range - real world is 280 mils (charging to 80%)

BMW i4 M50 is 270 mile range - real world is 216 miles (charging to 80%)

I've been driving the 2018 Model 3 RWD Long Range and I charge to 80% (~246 mile range) and always would like a little more range, especially in cold weather (like these days). I also keep sentry mode on when it's not parked at home and I run my heater before I get in the car and while I drive around.

More range is always better. And place to charge (ease of charging) is great (been to Canada 3 different times (Montreal and Quebec)and never had to worry about finding a charger).
Driving winter in NY and getting about 240 miles real world on 80% on i4 M50, sacrificing ~50 miles of range for the look, quality and performance was a no brainer for me. Truly night and day and this coming from someone who was always getting a Tesla. Recognize others may be primarily focused on range, but I would advise to truly check your driving patterns and if ~225 (cold) and ~275 miles (warm) range is enough range can't recommend the BMW enough.

If you can place an order now and take a delivery within the next week, does that mean there is no longer a backlog for tesla orders?

I requested a trade-in quote for my 2019 Model 3 LR with FSD 2 weeks ago and was given a range of $34k-36k.

Checked again today and it's now $24k-27k ... Now in my math, I'm actually loosing money on this deal. Not saying it's a bad deal, but if you're Tesla and your just taking off the discount from the trade in, then you're not giving any discount
