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.

Which Porsche? Let's compare apples with apples. If you compare Cayman and 3, which are polar opposites on the vehicular front, then it does not make sense.

Question: For a Long Range Model Y, with added paint and wheels, destination and order fee, it is coming to $58,630.
Will I still qualify for credit for the above vehicle ?

Thanks,

If I order Model Y with MSRP $54990, that will be below $55K tax credit limit, right?

The doc fee or destination charge wouldn't count in MSRP, correct? (Just want to confirm).

Lowest quality vehicles on the market. Zero reason to buy Tesla at this point. Elon Musk will have this company bankrupt or owned by Saudis within a year.
blah blah haters going hate. There's Zero reason to buy any other car at this price range other than Tesla. Find a better car at 45k than Model Y, we'll wait.

Are you trolling? How are these in any ways comparable? A sports coupe vs a luxury sedan?

Quote from ChronoTriggered :
So this means:
1. $7500 cash back after we file our federal taxes (assuming you don't owe any taxes)?
Or
2. $7500 tax write off (similar to donating $7500 to charity)?
No and not sure as to #2. It's not a cash back if you didn't pay any taxes or owe any at the end of 2023. Also I don't think it's a write off as you illustrated above. Maybe an accountant can chime in.

It's funny to think people like this were "environmentalist" and all about the cause until their political feathers get ruffled. But good for you, stand your ground and don't buy an EV or a mega corp running dirty ICE engines. Back to horses... Wait the animal rights...
Different brand EV?

I wouldn't call a tesla a luxury sedan now. At least not the materials used inside.

So how much is your tesla insurance?
Unfortunately being in Chicago we do drive "aggressive" by Tesla standard and my score is only 95 and the monthly premium is $60. They change every two months based on your score.

Quote from SDzZz :
$500 of gas to go 8000 miles? What kind of MPG are you getting? What was the MSRP of your car? That doesn't seem right
You can get that in a 50MPG Camry Hybrid, if your gas is around $3.12/gal.

8000mile/50mpg=160 gallons. 160/50=$3.125
