it is a credit NOT a deduction. you do need a tax liability equaling/exceeding that but that is barely over $50,000 taxable income for single filer. deductions are at your tax rate so a $7500 deduction would reduce your taxable income but only mean around a $1800 tax savings if you were in a 24% bracket. A credit is dollar for dollar savings on your tax liability
Hoping that tesla buyers have at least $50,000 taxable income if buying a $50,000+ vehicle
