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.

Anyone know the going rate to get the chargers installed where you live?

I live near Raleigh NC, and I think it's like $1100-1500 for the Wall charger installation here.

I wonder how much a 240v installation is, to use the mobile instead and save some money.
Hello neighbor! I had my builder install 2 of 240V NEMA 14-50 receptacles in my garage 5 years ago when building my house. I assumed I would have 1 maybe 2 electrical vehicles at some point. My advice would be reach out to few electricians to get quote.
You can do the wall charger + hardwired or Mobile connector + 240V NEMA 14-50
The Mobile connector route charges slightly slower but if your charging over night does not make a difference. 30 miles an hour vs 37 hr if I remember correctly.

theres also ice fanbois delusional that a 23 civic at 30k or 40k rav is better than a tesla 3 at 37k
When it come to tech absolutely Tesla beats in every single item. When it comes to size, overall cost, convenience, still a long way to go for EVs to become competitive.. For those who charge in public chargers, the cost is almost same as gas... The biggest issues why people don't buys is Cost, convenience and Size... These EVs are tiny for their 1-1 comparison..

Nothing wrong about this. You get $7,500 on top of what you are OWED.
No, that's wrong. The only reason government would owe you money is you already prepay tax to government, and it just returns the portion that you overpay. That has nothing to do with your tax liability.

For example:
You make 75k a year, assume federal tax is 10%. You owe government 7500 at the end of year. Most people choose to have withholding throughout the year, assume you pay government 7500/12= 625 per month, at the end of year, you already pay 7500 in tax, therefore, refund is $0 because you already pay what you owe.

IF you choose to pay government double of $625, by mistake or whatnot, at the end of year you would've paid $15000 to government. But you only owe $7500, so you file tax return and government now owes you $7500 so you get that back. The $7500 is not some magic money that government gives you. It's your money but you overpay so they return to you.

If you don't pay government anything throughout the year, you still owe it $7500 at the end of year, so you write a check to IRS when filing return for $7500 + interest.

Now here come EV rebate. if you buy a Tesla and get $7500 rebate, it reduces the amount you owe by $7500 REGARDLESS what you choice to do in the 3 scenario above. So now because of rebate you owe government $0, so whatever you have paid to government throughout the year you will get it back. Government does not give you $7500 on top of what you owe.

Assume you make 50k a year and owe government $5000 at the end of year. Buying a Tesla will reduce that $5000 to $0, but government will not send you another $2500 because you don't owe enough. If you prepay throughout the year you will get $5000 in refund, not $7500.

Hope this is clear.

The scenario above was absolutely righjt and you are not saying nothing that discredits it. If you are owed $10000 on your original tax return, the government will send you $17,500 as long as you have that much liability. That is what he/she said and it is absolutely right.

Hey neighbors, so cool that there's a few of us from Raleigh in here lol.

Wow that's not bad at all. $470 but that includes the wall connector price? I think the wall connector line is $350, that's great!

I do not see this vendor on Tesla find electrician list though. Are you familiar with them? Have you used them before?

One more gripe of mine with Tesla is build quality apart from cheap interior. Looks like lot of issues with paint, windows not closing entirely and condensation issues for tail lights. Man this car is at most 40k car because of technology lol.
