House introduced bill to phase out $7500 federal EV tax credits 👎

Not going to happen. Slate was designed as an EV from the ground up. Did anyone really believe the current federal incentives would last through the first round of deliveries in 2026-27?

Best case scenario would be to offer incentives on bundling options, e.g. extended range battery , SUV kit, wraps, etc. to help offset the loss of the EV tax credits.

We still don't know what the Slate price is going to be other than the target (with incentives) is less than $20K. Will the price without incentives be $27.5K as a lot of people have assumed? Maybe. I actually think that if the federal incentive goes away, Slate will price it closer to $20K...assuming they can get there given their cost structure. I'm hopeful that they can deliver the SUV version for under $30K wrapped. Time will tell.

The tax incentive went away twice already and was reestablished and reformulated once a new Congress got in. There will be a new congress in two years.

$19,999 before tax, delivery fee, tags, etc.

$19,999 before tax, delivery fee, tags, etc.

I’m betting on $25k with no credit

I would be okay with them taking away this tax credit as long as they pass the no tax on overtime bill they were talking about. That would definitely make up for it.
