That jumped off the screen at me too... ?It's potentially worse than that. There are rumors that the new credit will only apply to vehicles built in the US ... which the Mach-E is not.
Yes, but you aren't allowed to apply for the tax credit, because you shouldn't be subjecting yourself to the tyranny of taxation to begin withCan I still be Libertarian?
At least he can still enjoy MLB games, drink Coke and fly Delta!Yes, but you aren't allowed to apply for the tax credit, because you shouldn't be subjecting yourself to the tyranny of taxation to begin with
I've been trying to research this in the context of the USMCA trade agreement. I haven't had much luck finding anything specific, but I suspect that all vehicles made in North America might qualify. USMCA may prohibit differential tax treatment for goods made in member countries.It's potentially worse than that.

Thanks for taking the time to try and research into this. I agree the lack of specificity is concerning.I've been trying to research this in the context of the USMCA trade agreement.

The article states "American-made EVs" in paragraph 5. It does not specifically say "U.S.-made". That's also the wording of the Biden press release. I realize that when most people say "America", they mean the USA, but there is a troubling lack of specificity in that.
Don't you think they'll change that to "made in North America"? Then Mexico gets included along with Canada.It's potentially worse than that. There are rumors that the new credit will only apply to vehicles built in the US ... which the Mach-E is not.
One would hope that they change the language to allow that.. but there's no way of knowing what's being discussed behind closed doors.Don't you think they'll change that to "made in North America"? Then Mexico gets included along with Canada.
Excellent point. The cost of a Tesla could actually go up ?I'm also wondering if Tesla, with their habit of changing pricing on a whim, will also adjust accordingly. They could use the extra cash per unit to invest in their service centers.
Better yet... Ford, bring Mach-E manufacturing to the United States so we can be sure it will qualify for tax incentives.One would hope that they change the language to allow that.. but there's no way of knowing what's being discussed behind closed doors.
There's a thread about Ford Corporate watching this forum. Ford - get the lobbyists to make sure the Mach-E does not get excluded from the future tax incentive! Thanks ??
I don’t understand why I should be unable to recover stolen property. ?Yes, but you aren't allowed to apply for the tax credit, because you shouldn't be subjecting yourself to the tyranny of taxation to begin with
Yup. Chevy dropped the price of the Bolt after GM used up all of their tax credits.If this went into effect for Tesla, I would find it likely that Tesla would raise their prices to take advantage of some of the credit, just like how they lowered their prices when the credit went away as if it was a coincidence that the price to manufacture the car dropped at the same time as the subsidy disappearing.
Even BETTER yet... Let me get the Mach-E for the price of on the houseBetter yet... Ford, bring Mach-E manufacturing to the United States so we can be sure it will qualify for tax incentives.
