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 anyone is interested in hard numbers to figure out how much less expensive it is now compared to Tesla's best deal of 2022 - $7,500 discount with 10,000 free Supercharger miles - I bought a Tesla Model Y Long Range 7-Seater with white interior in late December 2022.

Excluding taxes and fees, I paid $63,940. It's now $59,630, which is $4,310 less, and it is eligible for the $7,500 tax credit. That means if I didn't buy it in December and bought it today, I would have saved $11,810 + sales tax, so a bit over $12,000 in savings I missed. (I got 10,000 Supercharger miles, which is worth somewhere between $500 and $1,000.) With taxes and fees, I paid $71,578.55 in total.

For those who do order, I recommend this Tesla Prep guide [glideapp.io] to check for build quality issues on delivery day.

I hope this helps,

Tesla plans to add a new radar product to its vehicles in mid-January, according to documents posted with the Federal Communications Commission.

The disclosure, which was first reported by Electrek, comes as the company faces scrutiny over the safety and capabilities of its standard advanced driver assistance system known as Autopilot and the $15,000 optional upgraded product branded as "Full Self-Driving." Tesla FSD beta software offers some automated driving features but is not a self-driving system.

The luxury EV-maker has long claimed it could reach full autonomy through a "vision only" approach that shuns other sensors like lidar and radar in favor of cameras and a deep neural network that quickly processes a vehicle's surroundings and responds in real time. Tesla CEO Elon Musk previously promised to "solve" full self-driving by the end of this year (he's also promised Tesla would get there every year for roughly nine years now). He has recently admitted the problem will take longer to solve.

And perhaps, as every other autonomous vehicle technologist says, it's not actually achievable yet through cameras alone.

The company began removing radar from its vehicles last May. In October, Tesla removed its 12 ultrasonic sensors from Model 3 and Model Y vehicles built for North America, Europe, the Middle East and Taiwan. Ultrasonic sensors measure distance via ultrasonic waves and are used as proximity sensors to support anti-collision safety systems, particularly in parking use cases.

Now it appears radar is back. It's not yet clear which models will get the new radar. The type of radar Tesla intends to market next year is of a frequency that's allocated by the FCC for ADAS use cases, according to Ram Machness, chief business officer at Arbe Robotics, which produces ultra-high-resolution 4D imaging radar.

Tesla had originally filed with the FCC to use the new radar — which is described in filings as "76-77 GHz Automotive Radar" — in its vehicles back in June.

"From the frequency of operation (76-77GHz) as well as the mechanical design of the sensor from Tesla's FCC filing, it appears that this radar would be utilized in ADAS applications," Steven Hong, VP and general manager of radar technology at semiconductor company Ambarella, told TechCrunch.

He noted that while the performance of this "edge" radar sensor will be limited, it's a positive development that Tesla is looking to add radar to its perception stack for safety-critical, robust performance.

Earlier this year, the FCC had granted a confidential treatment to Tesla in order to keep the details of the new radar under wraps. Late last month, Tesla applied to extend that confidentiality treatment another 60 days from its date of expiration, which is December 7.

i hope this answers your question

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 - $53,000 (-$7500 fed tax credit on base model + 7-seater but not performance)
* Jan 23 2023 - $53,500 (-$7500 fed tax credit on base model + 7-seater but not performance)
* Feb 4 2023 - $55,000 (-$7500 fed tax credit on all models)

I understand the analogy went over your head. It's ok. Keep reading the books I recommended it would eventually help.
Not the generic analogy, the other part. I've been consistent throughout. 50k is really not a lot of money for a car in 2023 (certainly not enough to lash out at strangers) & Tesla 3/Y are good, reasonably priced BEV. You puported to drive a Tesla & live in posh Newport Beach, so I don't understand why all the hostility tbh. I still hope you have a good day.

Nice move up for sure, but way down from a year ago when March 22 their stock was $361. vs today at $190. If their plant in Mexico comes to fruition, I can see the stock moving higher. Btw. Newport is awesome, but bring money. Personally I'm closing on a casa in Nayarit.
Jan has been nuts for momo, solid green candlestick on $QQQ. Heck, Meta is a 10 bagger just from yesterday on far OTM turned ITM weeklies. Yes, I think you're right, many more pipeline catalysts coming too. I don't live in NB (T. I. *claimed* to week or 2 ago). Congrats on Nayarit, amigo!

Interesting and if this new plant does happen, it's bye bye Fremont. Makes sense, especially if they are going to build their lower priced car.

https://mexiconewsdaily.com/news/...near-aifa/
Not a chance they're closing Fremont. They need to continue to scale, not play politics. The Bay area soaks up the majority of these cars. I see dozens a day now where it was a dozen a day 3 yrs ago; 5 back to back Tesla rolling into school parking lot this morning, very ordinary now.

And yet it went over your head. I hope you are getting paid to be a Tesla shill. I really hope.
And yes it's a very nice sunny day. Can't say how it's in your mom's basement.

$TSLA options are paying me very well ytd, thank you for asking! You never miss an opportunity for a mom joke. Do they have a lot of basements in NB? I thought there were very few in CA but would def like one.

Edit: to be clear, i dont believe you have a Tesla or own a house in NB but it's the internet so we can be whoever we want to be. I do think Tesla should send you an apology letter though because clearly there is some pent up aggression

Sure OTA updates are great, until Tesla disables a feature, um like radar.

It's OK, that you paid for that feature and didn't consent to losing it, because it is an OTA update so it must be good. LMAOLMAOLMAO
Didn't say you have to like every update. My dad lives in the 70s and he hates every time they update his phone lol

Btw, he hates Tesla, prefers his diesel's

My product page on the website no longer shows an option to select another model from the inventory.

Anyone else see that ?

I got the message asking me to schedule for delivery? Questions for those with the experience:

1. If I cancel it, what would I loose? How to get the deposit back?
2. If I decide to delay, how much longer can I delay?

TIA

No. And the radar could be for the Semi, their robot, no one knows it's going into a car.

I'm in Indy. Mine went from 254/6mo to 715/6mo with progressive. I switched to Costco which has me at 504/6mo 300k/100k 500 deductible with rental car coverage. I expected it to go up due to the vehicle value essentially doubling, but I didn't expect triple the price.
Costco sells their own or third party?
