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.

just to give you picture of tesla resale value. My friend bought Model S used in 2018 directly from Tesla for 40K with unlimited supercharging for life. Now new Model S base price is 94K. He didn't see battery degradation much. In last 5 years he would have saved atleast 6000 in gas and other maintenance activities when compared to a ICE vehicle. Just think about the price his car can go for now and how much is his savings
I have never seen any automobile to sell higher than its buying price after 5 years in any country or any decade

Does the delivery date have to be before 3/31 in order to receive the federal tax credit?
That is the $7500 question everyone has

Is it too risky to place an order at this point? It seems delivery would be delayed, and some of the comments stating that delivery must occur before 3/1

At this point, it's all speculative.. My order says estimated delivery between Feb 8 to Mar 8. It depends on your risk appetite. Also see if this helps https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaMod...are_button

It depends on location too. If your near one of the factories maybe it's better chances of getting it sooner?

yeah , i would say go place it. Before you place the order still says February- March. If you get an estimate after march you can just ask for a refund

Your vehicle will likely come from Freemont, not Austin. Tesla can't sell direct in TX, so an Austin build would have to be transported out of state and then transported by in state to meet the legal requirements. They are more likely to just ship you a Freemont built car.

Think it is a little difficult. You need to transfer your account to someone else, and then they could update their information to their own.

I would probably be wary of transferring to someone I did not know personally.

edit: ACTUAL LINK TO DEAL https://www.tesla.com/modely/design (SD's link goes to existing inventory page)
Wayback Machine if anyone wants to do some research: https://web.archive.org/web/20220...ely/design

I'll throw out some notable 'milestones' , focusing only on the Model Y LR base model:

* Feb 2021 - $49,000 - Roughly the lowest price for the Y LR (not including the SR @ $42k)
From this point forward, Tesla started increasing the price about $1-2 every month or so, until it peaked out at $66,000. Ex:
* May 2021 - $51,000
* July 2021 - $53,000, etc...
* Feb 2022 - $59,000, etc...
* July 2022 - $66,000 <-- peak
* Dec 1 2022 - $66,000 (-$3750 credit/refund)
* Dec 15 2022 - $66,000 (-$7500 credit/refund)
* Jan 1 2023 - $66,000 back to peak (-$7500 fed tax credit only on 7-seater)
* Jan 13 2023 - $66,000 -> $53,000 (-$7500 fed tax credit on base model + 7-seater but not performance)
Wasn't there fed tax credit in end-2021? Or Tesla rebate at that time?

Need to stop calling is a 37k Model 3 or 45k Model Y. You still have to pay tax on the full price of the car, if you live in a state with sales tax. Also, not everyone will qualify for the full $7,500 back. Too much misinformation here.

If you do not understand how the $7500 tax credit works, please educate yourself on it first before purchasing and expecting the full amount back
