Tesla Model 3 RWD starts at $40,240 but is now eligible for the full $7,500 federal tax credit (income limits apply). Previously, it was only eligible for $3,750. This makes the starting price $32,740 after tax credit.

Deal is even sweeter if you live in a state with additional credits:

VT: $26,320
MA: $26,830
PA: $27,330
RI: $27,820
DE: $27,820
NY: $28,320
CA: $28,330
CO: $28,330
CT: $29,030
ME: $29,320

Full tax credit details below, but the following income limits apply:

$300,000 for married couples filing jointly
$225,000 for heads of households
$150,000 for all other filers

NO IT DOES NOT.

Withholding is totally irrelevant to qualifying for the credit.

If you're unclear on this go read a 1040.

The part where you compute tax liability is lines 16 through 24.

THAT is where the $7500 EV credit comes off.

Your withholdings aren't even looked at until after that on line 25+







This is also not correct.

The Child Tax Credit is worth a maximum of $2,000 per qualifying child. Up to $1,600 is refundable for the 2023 tax year.

Refundable credits are computed AFTER non-refundable ones-- so the CTC is only "worth" $400 off your tax burden for these purposes- the $1600 left is refundable.

Thus if you had say $7900 in tax burden and one CTC and one EV credit, your tax burden would go to $0 and you'd get a full refund of the $1600 refundable part of the CTC

Washington State has no sales tax = about $4000 in savings.
*No State income tax, there is sales tax in WA
WA charges sales tax only on the portion of the cost of the vehicle that's exceeding $20k

What are you taking about? Oil and gas charges Tesla. Do your research on how power gets to your house to charge it.

No sales tax on EVs, It was in response to list that omitted it, thought it would be clear. I guess not for everyone.

Great deal but I really don't want to support Musk.
You must use the same logic and not buy anything made outside the USA.

Good luck with that mind set.

Oh wait, the Tesla cars sold in the US are made in the US by US workers... what about supporting them?! Or do you own a foreign made car?

Quote from Powza :
End of lease purchase? You clearly don't understand what is even being discussed.
Of course I do.

If you lease a Tesla you have no option to buy it. At all. Not at the end, not early.

That's one of the items you specifically complained about in the post I replied to.



Quote from Powza :
Are you saying every dealer every lease will mark up $7,500?
Again, the only thing I said on that topic was a direct quote from the source you provided

So now it's twice you appear to be arguing with... yourself.

Did you not read your own source link to know it said what I quoted it saying or something?



Quote from Powza :
I am only considering lease buyout deals with $7,500 capital reduction baked in, for example Hyundai Ioniq..
Hilariously- Hyundai is specifically the brand your source said marks up leases to steal the $7500 credit from the customer

So I guess that confirms- no, you did not read your own source LMAO

Quote from dhpham :
Low income won't have enough tax liability to claim $7,500 federal tax credit. If you max out or are at the low income threshold, your tax liability is roughly $2,000. So either way you're gonna get roughly the same rebate amount.
Not true. My parents for example are retired age, for tax reasons the CA rebate you can qualify based off of last years income. Then they can artificially increase their Federal income by withdrawing from retirement accounts and paying taxes now on those funds. Multiple ways to do it. I believe to qualify for the CA boosted $7500 you have to have a income (2 person household of) less than about 72K/yr.

I don't fully understand how this tax credit thing works.

So basically, would I subtract the tax credit amount to line 24 (total tax) and then subtract from line 33 (total payments)? So if you normally receive tax refunds, you would essentially add $7500 on top of what you normally would get refunded? Am I understanding this correctly?

ah my bad, my brain missed a word on the word "sales somehow"

There is sales tax for the portion that exceed $20k however until July 31, and it will be the portion that exceed $15k after.

So if the car is $37000, you will still pay the sales tax on the $17000 portion
