Did the $7k additional tax rebate pass?

The house bill was introduced in feb and it hasn't even been brought to committee. Can follow here GREEN Act of 2021 (H.R. 848).
I think there may be a senate bill as well, but that similarly has gone nowhere. I would not hold your breath.

Here you go. You're in CA and may be eligible for CVAP and CVRP, plus the clean fuel program. That saves you pretty much 11k. If you definitely need the tax credit, then by all means wait. but the eventually the current incentives will run out.

There is also the CARS Act.
www.govtrack.us
Electric CARS Act of 2021 (S. 395)
A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to extend certain tax credits related to electric cars, and for other purposes.
Agreed. I can see how that makes sense too. If you’re gong to have charging stations as part of the infrastructure bill, why not include an EV credit?

yup cvap is already gone for a few months due to funds exhausted if i would have waited i would have lost out 5k because who knows when they get funds with the backlog they have.
Might as well apply for the 5k cvap and plan to be patient for the 7k federal tax, biden should make it sweet..
Followed the link. Noticed it showed a 4% guestmate on passing.There is also the CARS Act.

I think it really all depends on what they can get rolled into the Infrastructure Bill. From what I read they plan to allocate $50Billion for each of the next 10 years to alternative fuel vehicles (so $500 billion total) Charging network and other incentives but I couldn’t find any details beyond that. The bill was very vague.
As an independent bill I don’t see these getting traction in the house or senate, but that is 100% opinion.

From my reading of the actual bill so far, cars bought during the transition period (defined as the beginning on the date Tesla was no longer able to get the credit until the enactment of this bill) will count towards the 400,000 additional cars and will receive a tax credit of 7000. I am not a lawyer, but here is an excerpt of Section 401 of this bill Text of H.R. 848: GREEN Act of 2021 (Introduced version) - GovTrack.us

This may be true, but it looks like Tesla sold 500,000 cars in 2020 alone, and is way past 600K total.
