In many other parts of the world,
even North America, the MSRP is the price of the car. There is no negotiating (at least, not upwards, and definitely not usually).
I don't understand why this is newsworthy? I bought a non-EV in the last decade by putting the order together online on the manufacturer's national website, then processing it through a dealership.
Buying a car in the US was so unnecessarily stupid because of all the haggling and pussyfooting around what the damn thing is actually going to cost.
- seattle_spring 4y agoIf you haven't bought a car in the last year or so then you're out of the loop. Stock is low and prices are above MSRP pretty much across the board. For especially in demand cars like the Lighting or Toyota RAV4 Prime the "dealership markup" can be 50% more than MSRP or more.
- xyzzy_plugh 4y agoThis is a problem predominantly only in the US. It's simply not legal to sell above MSRP here, for example.
