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.

IRS change the $55K limit but what about the delivery after March, will it cut in half or still full $7500 ? thanks!
In March Treasury Department and the IRS will issue guidance on the critical mineral and battery component requirements of the new clean vehicle credit under § 30D, Then the credit amount will depend on the vehicle meeting the critical minerals requirement ($3,750) and/or the battery components requirement ($3,750).

Possibly. I'm still calling them, but it keeps going to a voicemail box and says the box is full. Won't let me leave a message. Sent them a message via text, but no response either.

I'm trying to get both Fed Tax Credit with possible deadline of sometime in March AND California rebate (CVRP) possibly starting on March 1st, so I don't have much room to wiggle with the delivery dates.

Will try 'til tomorrow and hopefully everything works out. Ideally, it'd be best if I can get the order changed and get the car by 1st week of March, which I think may be impossible.

If everything works out, I'll get both. If not, will loose both in a worst case scenario.
we dont know about the march CVRP yet, right?

Quote from Eltoroz00m :
right, got used to replying about Model Y. But 4k for Model 3 depending on MSRP:

"The total incentive amount for an eligible vehicle is $25 per mile of EPA-rated all-electric range, as determined by fueleconomy.gov up to $4,000 for vehicles with a MSRP under $45,000, or up to $2,000 for vehicles with a MSRP between $45,000 and $55,000. Vehicles with an electric range of over 200 miles are eligible for an incentive of up to $4,000, depending on vehicle MSRP. See the program Terms and Conditions for more information on incentive amounts."

And this should be at point of sale.

"Your dealer will submit the application on your behalf and the incentive will instantly be applied to the cost of your new vehicle."

Yep - Tesla send me a pdf with some random VIN to sign off on. apparently doesnt have to be the same VIN.

Quote from 2Neolinux :
I got $2000 taken off for my MYLR without filling out any forms
I thought Tesla will take $2k or $4k off based on car(and MSRP cap) you ordered after validating your Registration information you upload on app/web that you are a New Jersey Resident

Hope none of NJ residents upgraded their MYLR today above $55K by getting happy to qualify for $7500 but forgetting and loosing out on NJ $2K
A form will be sent prior to the delivery. Will have your name in it and the 2K for Y.

No, not yet. Many community forums confirmed that Tesla did submit their application and the CVRP said the decision will be made in coming weeks. Their "regular" list update will be on February 28th according to their website [cleanvehiclerebate.org], so "I'm" just hoping that it will be the day. Nothing's for sure at this moment though.

" This credit amount applies to deliveries now and may change during March 2023, at which point the credit value may be reduced." still there.........Confused

Only Model Y: $80,000 is new

the updated guidance makes the MYP a no brainer if you like the extra performance/wheels/lights

it was $3,500(+tax)+$7,500= $11,000 difference before yesterday

today its really just $3,500(+tax) difference

that price just for the extra speed is already a decent value in terms of performance

Would have been great if i waited but with the ambiguity, i'd rather take $7,500 n lower price just to be on the safe side

Raises hand. That's what I did, drove to the Telsa center when it first open at 10am to match my current order with one that was available.

Best if you have a Tesla center nearby and drive there. That's what I did this morning to switch my order and grab one that was available locally. SA did it on the spot and I didn't pay the $500 increase.
