So if your underlying thought was that you could get the $7500 tax credit for the \"first new buyer\", the answer is no. Also, the only way to get the credit is if you had entered a binding contract (in July 2022) before the new changes to the tax credit were instituted. After that, the car no longer meets the \"made in North America\" battery requirement of the tax credit requirements.\n\nBTW, that was a not-so-subtle Tesla power move: they advocated for that new clause in the tax credit. Mainly since most other EVS are using foreign-courced batteries. The tax credit changes also removed the maximum vehicle-volume factor, which Tesla had previously reached and now no longer exists. The changes to the EV tax credit were all in favor of Tesla and against everyone else. It helped speed up the underlying issues for Fisker, as it killed their leasing program.
