Federal Incentives
Program Status: Paused indefinitely
The federal iZEV program paused on January 12, 2025, due to funding exhaustion. Model 3/Y eligibility ended January 10, 2025 after Tesla increased base prices. No current federal rebates exist for any Tesla models (including Cybertruck, Model S/X) as all exceed iZEV price thresholds ($55k base/$65k trim for cars; $60k base/$70k trim for SUVs).
How it works:
- Purchase an eligible Tesla model.
- Tesla submits the incentive application on your behalf at point-of-sale.
- Tesla deducts the value of the incentive from the final vehicle price before taxes.
- The government reimburses Tesla for the incentive amount.
For official details, visit the iZEV Program website.
