This is good news, but it's still not the $35,000 model.
Also, what's the breakdown on the incentives? I thought the federal rebate was $7500 if they haven't run out of those yet. Are they including state rebates (which presumably aren't the same everywhere)?
Including "gas savings" in the price seems more than a little disingenuous.

- mynameisvlad 8y agoYes, they likely are. I only see $7500 as my incentives line. You can click "Learn more" in the Federal Tax Credit blurb to get more info on the incentives, it might include state information. I assume the 35000 model is the "Standard Battery available in 4-6 months" that's below the options.
- elihu 8y agoYou're right, they're including a $2,500 California rebate.

- tbabb 8y agoFederal incentives cut in half in January. If I am not mistaken, the order deadline for a guaranteed delivery before Jan 1 passed a few days ago. It is possibly misleading to incorporate the full $7500 savings into the price, because they may not be able to deliver your car soon enough for you to claim it-- and they know this. Agree about the gas savings. That's totally low.
