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)

Would be good news if so. I'm confused on what they mean by

To be eligible, the vehicle must be on the CVRP eligible vehicles page within 90 days of first registration. Applicants must meet all eligibility requirements."

It's not on the eligibility list yet as of right now.

Quote from Thelnel52 :
It's apples and oranges. Tesla is bad at the things Toyota is good at. (Panel gaps, etc).

I think that $/mile of range is an important metric, but if the RZ has a more comfortable cabin and better build quality (which it almost certainly will) it will find an audience.

Mercedes thought that too with the EQC

In the end there was so little audience they cancelled bringing the vehicle to the US at all because the range was laughably awful, and doubly so for the price- and once that's true nobody cares about how soft touch the dash is.

This is Toyota failing to learn from Mercedes error, just as they've failed to learn, basically, anything at all from Tesla (or even Ford who quickly jumped to #2 in US EV sales in short order, though still an order of magnitude behind Tesla in sales)


BTW, the car my Tesla Model 3 replaced was a bought-new Lexus IS350. Prior to the Tesla that Lexus was the best (of quite a few) cars I'd ever owned.


The Tesla is a better car in every way, much better performance, much lower cost to fuel, vastly better infotainment system, smarter features, and in the first 4 years of ownership has needed less service than the Lexus did and had fewer from-the-factory problems too.




Quote from foxblur :
Well they don't hence all the discussion
Except sometimes they do.

It looks like when Tesla has spare 980s they put them in LRs, as evidenced by the LR owner who recently posted a pic of his 980 motor.

But as noted, 980 vs 990 makes no actual difference to the owner of the vehicle unless they plan to do 3rd party modification to turn an LR into a P anyway.

Yeah, my understanding is that the vehicle just needs to be added to the eligible list within 90 days of your Tesla delivery in order for you to qualify.

I don't see why Tesla doesn't refund people's order fee when they push the delivery date beyond the original estimate.

An additional $2,500 is only available to consumers with annual household incomes less than or equal to 300 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL).

i am sure there is a lot of smart folks here can make that work, but the limit is too low for most who are on W-4.

just a reference, you need to make no more than 130k for a household of 8. and for each additional person, your limit goes up by $13,260.
Did the eligibility requirements change for the CVRP rebate?

Am I understanding the requirements correctly? If joint filers make more than $200,000, then you are not eligible at all (even for the $2,000 base rebate)?

But if you go to the savings calculator, it does not mention anything about a $200k income cap. It just asks if you make more than $73,241. I thought previously, there was no income cap for the $2000?

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).
just to be clear, lr is actually 4.5s 0-60. website shows 4.8 because lr takes into account .3s for rollout while p does not. its a marketing trick to make the p number look better.

this is from the tesla site. notice how they tried to hide that behind a wall of text lol.

Acceleration 0-60 mph
Model Y Long Range4.8 sec
Model Y Performance3.5 sec*

Powerful Efficiency
Tesla designed Model Y from the ground-up as an electric vehicle using system-level integration throughout. Each component, including batteries, motors and even exterior aerodynamics are optimized to benefit from one another and create one of the most efficient, yet unbelievably powerful vehicles ever built.
*With first foot of rollout subtracted.

testing from car and driver as well as motor trend gets under 4.5s for lr.

https://www.caranddriver.com/tesla/model-y
https://www.motortrend.com/cars/tesla/model-y/

ab if it actually is .5 sec faster, that would make the lr under 4s vs 3.5s on p.

Don't lie . The closest Prius is the limited AWD and it doesn't even come close in performance or features and that cost $35,865 MSRP before dealer adds. That's almost the same as the model 3 after tax credit

Besides who drives a Prius , it's 2023 not 2000
