Well, they have played a trick that will get them a bit farther down the road. Ford Credit has bought up all the inventory at the dealers to get the credits now (GM did the same). So, they can continue the savings until at least those cars are sold.

Smart. I’m rooting for all of them. We want EVs to thrive, not die.

will people be able to buy these cars? i thought the idea was that ford would buy the car from the dealer, claim the credit, and then lease the cars with a $7500 capital cost discount.

I'm not sure, it might only apply to leases. But I think the "credits" for buying went away long ago, so I never really understood where the discounts came from for buying in recently, most likely just from the states or Ford. So, that part should be the same.

There are several articles out there on this. Here is one I found with a quick search:

I have seen way more MachEs and Lightnings on the road here in the PNW! This announcement aligns with that observation.

Well played Ford, well played.

Of course it only buys a few months, but well played nonetheless.

So aren these Ford credit purchases included in these “record sales numbers?”

Interesting question, I certainly hope they haven't included the Ford credit buys, but I don't know.

Looking at the fact that Q3 numbers were as high as Q1 and Q2 combined, I would guess either the internal purchases counted or people rushed in to buy “before the credits expired.”

Either way it’s a short lived bump.

Bad news would have been no bump 3rd quarter.

Not surprising considering the $7500 tax credit has ended. EV demand in the 4th qtr will likely slow down.

Yeah idk if I just notice them because I drive one, but I feel like I've been seeing more MachEs on the road over here in the Henderson / Vegas NV area.

I was part of that Q3 20,177 count! Ditched my Tesla finally for a Mach E GT!
