4. Tax Rebate and Government Rebate

The new Highland Model 3 sales would certainly suffer for not getting the $7,500 IRA rebate.
This IRA rebate makes the Model Y cheaper than the Model 3.

I wonder if it would have not been possible to use any other type of batteries
for the new Model 3, like Tesla did by using 4680 cells into the Model Y?

Model Y RWD $36.5k (After Fed Tax Credit)​
Model 3 RWD $39k​
Model Y LR AWD $41.5k (After Fed Tax Credit)​
Model 3 LR AWD $47.750​
Note: There is still a possiblilty of taking advantage of the Tax Rebate by getting a Model 3 Lease,
but this is a little bit depending of what depreciation Tesla will use to calculate the lease.
