Deal Details
Tesla has dropped the base price of the Tesla Model Y from $65,990 down to $52,990. This price reduction means the Model Y now qualifies for the $7,500 Federal Tax Credit (details here).

Thanks to Community Member MurraytheDemonSkull for finding this deal.

Additionally, the base prices of all Tesla vehicles have been reduced. The base Model 3 is now $43,990, which is $3,000 lower than before. The Model 3 Performance is now $53,990, which is $9,000 lower than before, and now qualifies for the tax credit.

Editor's Notes

Written by RazorConcepts
  • This is $13,000 lower (19% savings) than the previous base price.
  • Factoring in the tax credit, the price of the Model Y today is $20,000 less than one purchased in December 2022.
  • To qualify for the federal tax credit, one must not exceed the following adjusted gross income limits:
    • $300,000 for married couples filing jointly
    • $225,000 for heads of households
    • $150,000 for all other filers
  • The tax credit is not refundable, which means one must have federal tax due to take advantage of it. If the tax due is less than the credit amount, one can only claim the credit up to the amount of the tax due.
  • Refer to the forum thread for additional deal discussion.

If your state is still using natural gas or coal as souce of energy then buying electric vehicle is pointless.

If I buy an eligible EV now, can I use my 2022 income to qualify for 7500$ tax credit and no need to worry about 2023 income thresholds???

As IRS website is saying "You can use your modified AGI from the year you take delivery of the vehicle or the year before, whichever is less. If your modified AGI is below the threshold in 1 of the two years, you can claim the credit."

Was hoping to do a refundable reservation and think later, but it appears they required a $250 non-refundable order Fee. Tried to order a Red 5-seater but the Red color pushes the price over $55,000 so disqualifies the tax credit. I'm more than a little worried that the 7-seater Model Y can't accommodate 3 car seats. Anyone have any clue? I have 2 Chicco NextFit car seats and those are pretty wide and bulky. Would hate to waste hundreds of dollars to buy entirely new car seats to fit a Model Y.

I'm already locked in the $7500 tax credit with the Rivian R1S, but they say expect delivery late 2023. The Rivian R1S so so much more roomy and would work, but that delivery date is a concern. The Model Y delivery date is better, but that interior dimension is a little concerning.

I mean, you got $7500 credit from Tesla directly right? I did as I picked mine on the 24th. I am also in the same boat as you. I think we lost around 5k.
With the $7500 Tesla credit (from Dec) and the $7500 tax credit (if you are eligible) almost canceling each other, what you are really losing is close to the net price drop, which is approximately $12k, assuming you got a model Y.

STILL VERY EXPENSIVE ( read this )

Tesla's Model 3, the least expensive vehicle it has on the market, will cost Chinese consumers about $33,427, down from $38,704. The price of the Model Y was lowered from $42,051 to $37,830. 4 days ago

Battery swap, $20,000... no thanks.
8 years or 120,000 miles warranty; 81 - 87% capacity at 200k miles. Is is really a concern?

The Model Y performance won't work on this deal because it's over $55k. The IRS website shows the 7 seater can go up to $80k but Tesla custom order does not give you a 7 seat option in the performance model, only the long range model.

i too took delivery of my long range model y on dec 29 2022 for 59k before tax, me and my wife enjoy the heck out of it and its a very fun car, very happy with our purchase.

that being said this HUGE price reduction definitely feels like a slap in the face, i know it probably won't happen but elon should give late 2022 deliveries free enhanced autopilot or something,

although the one silver lining is that we don't owe anything to the IRS so the actual price hit is more akin to 7k instead of 14k.

Wait until you are surrounded by Tesla and still have no clue why people keep buying it. Go test drive one so you don't judge it based on the lack of information of what it is or false rumors spreading by FUD.

you do know that new ICE cars will eventually get banned everywhere. No matter how much you love it, you'll have limited options to buy one or get it repaired. No one will make them anymore, so are the parts suppliers. They will switch to EV and those gas cars will go extinct just like horse carriers & all businesses around it
Lol. People buy it because agenda pushed by the government forced infrastructure to change, plus like someone said dealer markup on ICE makes EV junk sells faster. when ICE rise again with synthetic fuel and cancel culture falls upon EV again we will be the last ones smiling. Long live the ICE!
