Thanks. Was not a fan of the white in that color after seeing some YouTube videos and the two Model 3 rentals I had with hertz I really liked the black interior with the wood.
And while highland will be cool, I really dig the wood and of course the stalks. Lol
Californina- that's interesting.
When my post was moved, the title and thus the point was lost. Tesla has hit the magical $35k barrier, as promisted 5 years ago. And not on some backdoor beg your sales team sort of thing.
Unless of course you are in California, appararently.
<Does that mean I can buy cars here in NC and export them to CA ?>

Tax credit is now $7500 on all Model 3s
electrek.co
So around $30,000 for an inventory model after credit.
Tesla surprises by gaining full $7,500 tax credit on cheapest Model 3, now starts at $30,000

Does the M3 still have the LFP battery for the RWD and dual motor versions?!? I'm trying to figure out how the credit is now the full $7,500 if the batteries are the CATL batteries.
Highland models are also likely coming soon with all of the price reductions.

Don't the new M3 AWD have LFP now (when they recently returned them and they had they estimated mileage).
Tesla reintroduces Model 3 Long Range in US... with Chinese cells?
Tesla has once again started taking orders on the Model 3 Long Range in the US, after it was missing...

"Tesla has once again started taking orders on the Model 3 Long Range in the US, after it was missing for nearly nine months. And it might be using Lithium-iron-phosphate (LiFePO4/LFP) battery cells, like the Model 3 Standard Range, or it might be a new chemistry, based off of LFP…"

No. There is no physical way to pack enough LFP cells into a 3/Y battery to enable 333 miles of EPA range.
The “new” LR pack appears to be Chinese-made NMC cells from LG.

Thanks. I was excited about the prospect of an increased range LFP Model 3, but that makes sense based on the battery size.
We rented a RWD Model 3, with the upgraded wheels, and it got more range than my MYP, since you could charge it to 100% and it was incredibly efficient. I will be buying some version of one of these eventually, but I'm curious what the highland will bring and we don't need another car right now.

If the battery is using Chinese-made cells, then how does the M3LR* qualify for the full $7,500 tax credit?
*All Model 3s in the US now qualify for the full credit and are subject to the same sourcing requirements as before
It doesn’t. Once you purchase the car it’s not Teslas problem whether you get your Tax Credit or not….

I would wait for update/confirmation from IRS first because they still say 3750 for RWD and LR and the IRS is who is providing the tax credit, not Tesla.

That is indeed the question. It appears Tesla thinks they have come up with a way around these rules. Whether the IRS agrees or not remains to be seen.

A court would surely agree it’s their problem if they’re explicitly advertising something that isn’t true.
we would see update on Monday since federal gov doesn't work on weekend.
