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 am a long hold for 4 hours by calling 1-888-518-3752. Is there a better way or other way to reach Tesla sales and support.
Either the Edit Design option on the webpage (not app) or texting your SA. You may have better luck calling the local store, but then you'd be hanging up after a 4 hour wait so far.

That is not based on an actual test with evidence, its more of a marketing blog by a conservative pro-car publication. Says 12-15% I have read 20-36% depending on amperage. Plus I am talking about charging from near empty to 100%, the efficiency as battery gains over 70% charge is much lower that mid levels.

Plus you lose about 4 miles /day on charge, drive or not.

How does Tessie know what goes on in your meter? Does it have a hardware device wrapped around your charging cable?
Tessie is an app that can read all the data coming from the car. It plugs into all the major APIs (Speed, power consumption, tire pressure, charging, climate, telemetry, etc.).

Quote from sleekwallet :
then in your opinion there's little to no value to pay for the performance option?
since i just get my Y LR for service (some paint issue) and was given a M3 LR for loaner for a while (that is supposed to have 0-60 in 4.3 seconds, which is what Y LR boost buys you).

I actually don't feel the performance difference is worth it in daily driving (i actually felt no difference) . the enhanced auto pilot, however, does seems to be quite nice, and if that's available for, say 3k, i would have jump on it. i do, however, believe it is a very different experience when you can hit sub 3 second , as in the case of M3P, S Plaid when i test drive those.

i also believe (and you should confirm with Tesla) that you can try the boost mode. you got 48 hours to try and can issue refund if you don't like it, ONCE. (so no refund the next time you buy it)

Wrong thread. No one here cares for or wants to downgrade for a Prius. Please move on.

Correct, my vehicle was assembled in Fremont.



It is hard to say! By looking at my VIN (7SAYGDEE3PFxxxxx) its eight digit is "E" so one would assume it has the standard dual motor but i found that it has a 980 performance dual motor.
Thanks for this post. I assumed I also didn't get a performance motor since my 8th digit = E. I'll check my motor out tomorrow. Mine also is from Fremont.

Good to know you got the Vin, I'm also waiting on the Deep Blue / Black, but without hitch. A day later than you.

Order Date: Jan 17 (White/black/19" Dallas, TX)

EDD 2 weeks back: Mar 17 - Mar 31
EDD last week: Feb 18 - Mar 18
EDD on 02/04: Feb 12 - Feb 26
02/06 - changed the color to MSM to see if the delivery date will change.
02/07 - VIN assigned for delivery between Feb 7 - Feb 14
02/07 - cancelled the order since I don't need a new car now and want to wait for HW4 probably in 2024.
Ya HW4 in 2024 but won't be as polished as HW3 is until 2025 and then why not just wait for HW5 in 2026 which will allow Teslas to fly

On February 28, 2023, the increased rebate amounts will be updated to:
$7,500 for battery-electric vehicles (previously $4,500)
$7,500 for fuel cell electric vehicles (previously $7,000)
$6,500 for plug-in hybrid vehicles (previously $3,500)

it would be better to wait.

Yes, it's usually a much smaller window after you get your VIN. When I got my Model 3 in summer 2021, it was two weeks from VIN until delivery.

Maybe the timeframe will shrink in the coming days…
