The point of sale rebate is up and running at participating dealerships listed on the NJ Charge Up website and more dealers are being added daily. My boyfriend got a Kona Limited this weekend with the $5,000 rebate but the Kona Ultimate would have reduced his rebate to $2,000 since that trim is...
I purchased mine two weeks ago and it came with distracting water stains. Iām actually here browsing for products since rubbing, Invisible Glass, and other stuff hasnāt removed them.
I agree about the stakeholder BS - that wasnāt how that went down at all. I finally gave up today and purchased (no ADM). Thatās the stateās goal after all, right?? Weed out the āincentive-essentialā buyers from others? /s Well my Carvana trade-in appraisal came in $3k over KBB and my $45,895...
I watched it live - from my understanding, BPU approved the Charge Up NJ phase 2 funding (total budget actually seems to be an increase from proposed $) - but not the program details itself. No announcement on incentive amounts or launch date/month, although the straw proposal was mentioned...
NJBPU meeting this Thursday, clean energy program recommendations on the agenda - page 8.

Now is a good time to contact your dealers and remind them enroll in the dealer portal (see post 309). My salesman didnāt know the NJ rebate...
Same here. The salesperson I placed with also said their dealer isn't "participating," so I sent them the information and webpage and asked them to look into it. They confirmed "not participating." I called the GM to ask if I could transfer my (non-built) order to a new dealer, who also asked me...
I saw that too. It's been so long since I bought a car that I forget what what's printed on the sales papers (MRSP vs. vehicle sale price, etc.). Was hopeful there was a way, but seems not. Losing $3,000 for an MSRP $895 over the soft cap is painful for me. My other half is going with the Kona...
See below dealer enrollment webinar from June 8. According to the Tesla forum tracking this drama, dealers received an email today that they can enroll in the POS portal (webinar at 17:15 indicates enrollment opens "at least two weeks" prior to program launch so dealers could be ready for day 1...
In the latest move, thereās now some sort of portal linked below. It requires some sort of access token for vehicles bought ābefore the POSā launches. I am hoping this means that even if dealer systems arenāt ready for a POS rebate on July 1, the program may actually begin on that date with a...
I have been working with Lilliston Ford in Vineland (no ADM, x-plan/Options accepted) but also saw some "dealer ordered" from Ace Ford in Woodbury (not sure of ADM, x-plan/Options). I hadn't thought about the Options credit expiration. Maybe we can do paperwork ahead of time? Given the state of...
Not to draw this out this because NJ residents will have resolution soon enough, but the senate presidentās office (also my district rep) called me today to talk about the straw proposal after I wrote to them. They are looking into it, reiterated that it IS only a straw proposal, and claim to be...
See if you can find one āin transit,ā dealer ordered. I did (very South Jersey) and put a deposit down on it (Select SR, RWD, Tech/Comfort package. And itās blue!). I confirmed no ADM, does Options, accepts X-plan. They went over some figures with me and they were spot-on to my calculations...
There's discussion in a Tesla thread, too, so this should pick up attention, even if the efforts fail. I submitted comments to BPU this morning framing the higher costs as often related to extended battery range options. In areas of limited charging, the extra expense for ER will help ease range...
I wrote my state legislators today and will submit comments. The soft cap of $45k is total BS two freaking months before program launch when they know people have cars on order. I hope NJ pays out the back incentives they owe from the quickly depleted Year 1 at the full $5k also.
Year 2 of a...
